    　　There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages．

    　　On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port．It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, "If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship．But if he comes out before the sun appears, I shall get his wages．"

    　　The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating, so they didn't trust him．But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it．He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it．When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away．

    　　"You are cheating, " the captain said to the sailor．"The fire's warming you．"

    　　"But it's half a mile away! " said the sailor．

    　　"A fire's fire, " answered the captain．"I have won．"

    　　The sailor came out of the water, and said, "Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can't cook a chicken．"

    　　"I can, " answered the captain．

    　　"If you cook this chicken, " said the sailor, "I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can't, you will give me your ship．"

    　　The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, "Where's the fire? "

    　　"There it is, " answered the sailor．"On the shore．"

    　　"But it's half a mile away, " said the captain angrily．

    　　" 'A fire's fire, ' you said, " answered the sailor．"If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken．"

    　　Deep into the night, the bus pulled into a Howard Johnson’s restaurant and everybody got off the bus except Vinge．The young people began to wonder about him, trying to imagine his life：perhaps he was a sea captain; maybe he had run away from wife; he could be an old soldier going home．When they went to the bus, one of the girls sat beside him and introduced herself．After a long time, slowly and painfully, he began to tell his story．He had been in prison in New York for the last four years, and now he was going home．

    　　“Well, when I was in prison I wrote to my wife．I said, Martha, I understand if you can’t stay married to me．I said I was going to be away a long time, and that if she couldn’t stand it, if the kids kept asking questions, if it hurt her too much, well, she could just forget me．Get a new young man－she’s a wonderful woman－and forget all about me．I told her she didn’t have to write to me, and she didn’t, Not for the three and a half years．”

    　　“Last week, when I was sure freedom was coming through, I wrote to her．I told her that if she had a new young man, I would understand．But if she didn’t, if she would take me back, she should let me know．We used to live in this town, Brunswick, and there’s a great big oak tree just as you come into the town．I told her if she would take me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree, and if she didn’t want me, forgot me, no handkerchief and I’d keep going on through．”

    　　Soon all the others were in it．When they were 20 miles from Brunswick, the young people took over window seats on the right side, waiting for the approach of the great oak tree．Vinge stopped looking, tightening his face into the ex-con’s mask．Then it was 10 miles, and then five, and the bus became very quiet．

    　　Then suddenly all of the young people were up out of their seats, screaming and shouting and crying, doing small dances．All except Vinge．
