I couldn t sleep all night; a fog horn was groaning incessantly on the Sound, and I tossed half sick between grotesque reality and savage frightening dreams. Toward dawn I heard a taxi go up Gatsby s drive and immediately I jumped out of bed and began to dress I felt that I had something to tell him, something to warn him about and morning would be too late. Crossing his lawn I saw that his front door was slll open and he was leaning against a table in the hall, heavy with dejeclon or sleep. Nothing happened, he said wanly. I waited, and about four o clock she came to the window and stood there for a minute and then turned out the light. His house had never seemed so enormous to me as it did that night when we hunted through the great rooms for cigarekes. We pushed aside curtains that were like pavilions and felt over innumerable feet of dark wall for electric light switches once I tumbled with a sort of splash upon the keys of a ghostly piano. There was an inexplicable amount of dust everywhere and the rooms were musty as though they hadn t been aired for many days. I found the humidor on an unfamiliar table with two stale dry cigarekes inside. Throwing open the French windows of the drawing room we sat smoking out into the darkness.
