The Negro thrust a card into Rudolph's hand. There was nothing on one side of the card, and on the other, "Green Door." And then Rudolph saw that three paces away a man had thrown away the card he had given him as he passed. Passing by it again, he received the card again. The same thing was written on the first card.
