Outside Paul Revere’s house, he sees Cilla and Isannah. They have come to meet him as they always do on Thursdays and Sundays, even though Johnny has not shown up to the past few meetings. Now that Johnny has new friends at the print shop and the Observer, he is not as interested in Cilla. He notices that Cilla’s clothes are shabbier than the last time he saw her, and thinks to himself that he is more attracted to Lavinia Lyte. He leaves abruptly when Isannah starts to annoy him.
