Watches

Ingersoll watch: Annie repeatedly compares her Ingersoll watch with the station clock while nervously waiting for the correct train.

Several trains were called and every time she got up and made a rush for the gates, but each time came back to her seat opposite me. (Project Gutenberg ebook 36018)
