What was the weather like
It was cold. And there was a wind with a little rain in it.
There was now a cold rain falling and the wind was stronger.
It was only about ten at night.
About The characters
The cop ( Jimmy) The man
(Bob)
Appearance
Speech
The cop moved along the street, looking strong and important.
He was a fine-looking cop, watchful, guarding the peace.
The man near the door had a colorless square face with bright eyes, and a little white mark near his right eye. He had a large jewel in his necktie.
The man waiting took out a fine watch, covered with small jewels.
“I’ll be on my way,” said the policeman. “Hope your friend turns up”
“I was at the appointed place on time.”
“Well, we kept in touch for a year or two，and then we lost contact. But I know Jimmy will meet me here if he’s alive…….I came a thousand miles to stand in this doorway tonight，and it’s worthwhile if my old partner turns up.”

The policeman on the beat walked along the street as he always did.

Critical Thinking
Read Jimmy’s letter with emotion, and what decision did he make Do you agree with him on his decision
Bob: I was at the place on time. I saw the face of the man wanted by Chicago cops. I didn’t want to arrest you myself. So I went and got another cop and sent him to do the job.
