was there anyone at that early hour I could ask I had thought I might find a shop selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his job but the town was completely dead Then suddenly I found what I was looking for There was a small post office and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street next to it was the town s only public call box which badly needed a coat of paint I hurried forward but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside He was very fat and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat and rubber boots I could not see his face he was bending forward over the phone with his 3 back pressed against the glass and didn t even raise his head at the sound of my coming nearer and nearer Carefully and surprisedly I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait my turn It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the call box door 56 The author was walking
