...that even at the rate of 6,000 an hour, there was no chance that those at the end of the line could get in before the funeral procession Monday morning. They never stopped. At 2 a.m., a wornan walked by the bier wheeling an infant asleep in a stroller. A blind man was led by the casket, his companion softly whispering a description of the scene. At 2:30 a.m., Jersey Joe Walcott, onetime heavyweight champion of the world, went by. He had waited eight hours in line...

An evening stroller, glancing into ground-floor rooms, sees what appears to be a succession of genre pictures by Vermeer: in each, a glowing, red-shaded lamp throws its light on one or two girls sitting by the window, staring blankly at the street.
