I 'll get him by long distance . '' They were quite silent in calculation on the way to Hollis Creek , and Miss Josephine found herself pushing forward to help make the machine go faster . Breathlessly she followed Sam into the house , and he obligingly left the door of the telephone booth ajar , so that she could hear his conversation with Dickson .
