"Everything will be all right. Your dad is on the way. From the sound of his voice, he's boiling mad. Hate to be in Del Santo's shoes right now." It was late and I was sleepy. But this was no time to take a nap. Might miss something good. An automobile roared up the driveway and stopped. Front door slammed. Could hear Dad's voice downstairs.

"Stop yelling, you'll wake the baby." "Where's Del Santo?" boomed Dad. "Wait 'till I lay my hands on that rat." The nursery door opened and Dad came in.

"All right, Mr. Regan," she said. "We're ready." "Come on," said Dad. "Let's get out of this dump." Miss Latour grabbed Dad. Tried to hold him. "Bill," she pleaded, "don't take my baby. He's all I've got, Bill." Dad pushed her away. "You don't deserve to have a kid," he said. "He's my son and he goes with me !" "Stop, stop!" screamed Miss Latour. "Help. Roland !
