Ray said to himself, "Peter has some awfully knotty point on hand, and
is resting the brain tissue for a moment." Ray had noticed, when Peter
interrupted him during office hours, on matters not relating to
business, that he had a big or complex question in hand.
Peter closed the door and went back to his room. Then he took a fifth
sheet of paper, and wrote:
"WATTS: A day's thought has brought a change of feeling on my
part. Neither can be the better for alienation or unkind thoughts.
I regret already my attitude of yesterday. Let us cancel all that
has happened since our college days, and put aside as if it had
never occurred.
"PETER"
Just as he had finished this, his door opened softly. 'Peter did not
hear it, but took the letter up and read it slowly.
"Boo!"
Peter did not jump at the Boo. He looked up very calmly, but the moment
he looked up, jump he did. He jumped so that he was shaking hands
before the impetus was lost.
"This is the nicest kind of a surprise," he said.
