A fragment hints at a mysterious spell in the atmosphere as a young man, a teacher in public schools, contemplates fate. The scene unfolds with cryptic dialogue about tastes and a Washington setting, suggesting a literary or dramatic byplay.
A fragment describes a character Willie Wishington who believes his own opinion is highly valued. The text notes that Miss Cayenne answers and that natural assumptions presume only unfaithful people fail to respect him, reflecting on personal reputation.
