table neither right nor left [xxx
xxx] straight to the [xxx xxx]
long table with all the forms to fill

[0047] in and [xxx] the ballpoint kindly
provided at the end of a chain sat
down and was taking a look round
for once before dozing away [0050] perhaps
[just] fear of attack or [expulsion] ^ejection
[xxx] having clearly no business in
the place not to mention your personal
appearance & monopolizing into the bargain

[0050] [xxx] ^space that could ill be spared [xx took] a
look [around] then with some apprehension
at your fellow men & women thanking God
again [xxx what] bad & all as you were you
were not as they till it began to dawn
that for all the attention you were getting
you might as well not have been there at

[0050] all the eyes passing over you and going
through you as though you were so much
thin air never resting on you with the
[usual] abhorrence but passing by you or
