Excerpt from The Day of Faith
Well, he said impudently, it looks like a fair enough program. How soon did you say that I ate?
After all, he had his code. As long as whining might serve, he would whine with the best of them. But when all h0pe was lost, it was his thief's duty to show bravado. The youngest man turned to the oldest of the group.
Well, Mr. Hendricks, it isn't often that theory and practice shake hands with each other. What do you think now?

Excerpt from The Day of Faith
The prisoner stared at his captors. They were five, and he was one.
"What you goin' to do with me, gents?" he asked. The whine of the professional crook, common to mendicants also, was in his voice. Divested of his mask, which he had worn upon his entrance, he was the stubbly-bearded, beady-eyed, loose-lipped kind of man who is terrifying to women, but cringes before men.
The youngest man, the one who from the brightly lighted dining room had heard the sound upon the porch outside, and had tiptoed around the house and engaged the intruder, laughed.
"Do with you? Why, we're going to give you a cold supper, then a nice warm bed, and in the morning we're going to raise a purse for you, and give you a good job, with easy hours and a large salary, and elect you to the country club - why," and his hard young voice, still a trifle breathless from the struggle outside, took on a tone of mock surprise, "what did you think we were going to do with you?"
The burglar shuffled his feet. His shrewd eyes shifted from face to face. Elderly men, all of them, save for the man who had spoken, he seemed to read mercy in the face of none.
