The door swung in the wind, flailing mercilessly, banging
erratically and loudly, keeping him awake.
"Damned door!" he pulled the pillow over his head
and tried to go back to sleep, but quit trying. He got up and pulled his boots on. It was raining.
"Good grief!" he said.
He climbed up to the hay-mow . He reached down for the door but slipped on the wet
timber.
"Damned door! " he yelled on the way down.
"Good thing the hay-wagon was still loaded " he
told his wife as she handed him a cup of coffee at breakfast.
