We began to swear amongst our- selves: “Fools that we were, what right had we to put a woman into such an office?” Grandfather Nazarov told Marya straight to her face: “Marya, you walked in at the wrong gates.” But she only shook her head. | Ce Mane ATER we came to the Soviet to take a look at her.
