4. Question #1

Which line from the text best supports that Mr. Conway does not recognize Mr. Barting's

unmistakable communication from "beyond the grave"?

A. He greeted me coldly with merely a movement of the head and passed on, leaving me

standing on the walk, with half-proffered hand, surprised and naturally somewhat piqued.

B. "I do not think, Mr. Foley, that I have any longer a claim to your friendship, since Mr.

Barting appears to have withdrawn his own from me-for what reason, I protest I do not

know. "

C. "I met him yesterday ten minutes before meeting you. I gave you exactly the same

greeting that he gave me. I met him again not a quarter of an hour ago, and his manner

was precisely the same: he merely bowed and passed on. "

D. ". That man's cold greeting was merely a stranger's civil acknowledgment of my own. " 15
