The
taciturn
Austin
saluted
and
withdrew
.
Challenger
lit
a
cigarette
,
and
,
drawing
his
chair
closer
to
his
wife
’
s
,
he
took
her
hand
in
his
.
"
You
know
how
matters
stand
,
dear
,
"
said
he
.
"
I
have
explained
it
also
to
our
friends
here
.
You
’
re
not
afraid
are
you
?
"
"
It
won
’
t
be
painful
,
George
?
"
"
No
more
than
laughing
-
gas
at
the
dentist
’
s
.
Every
time
you
have
had
it
you
have
practically
died
.
"
"
But
that
is
a
pleasant
sensation
.
"
"
So
may
death
be
.
The
worn
-
out
bodily
machine
can
’
t
record
its
impression
,
but
we
know
the
mental
pleasure
which
lies
in
a
dream
or
a
trance
.
Nature
may
build
a
beautiful
door
and
hang
it
with
many
a
gauzy
and
shimmering
curtain
to
make
an
entrance
to
the
new
life
for
our
wondering
souls
.
In
all
my
probings
of
the
actual
,
I
have
always
found
wisdom
and
kindness
at
the
core
;
and
if
ever
the
frightened
mortal
needs
tenderness
,
it
is
surely
as
he
makes
the
passage
perilous
from
life
to
life
.
No
,
Summerlee
,
I
will
have
none
of
your
materialism
,
for
I
,
at
least
,
am
too
great
a
thing
to
end
in
mere
physical
constituents
,
a
packet
of
salts
and
three
bucketfuls
of
water
.
Here
—
here
"
—
and
he
beat
his
great
head
with
his
huge
,
hairy
fist
—
"
there
is
something
which
uses
matter
,
but
is
not
of
it
—
something
which
might
destroy
death
,
but
which
death
can
never
destroy
.
"
"
Talkin
’
of
death
,
"
said
Lord
John
.
"
I
’
m
a
Christian
of
sorts
,
but
it
seems
to
me
there
was
somethin
’
mighty
natural
in
those
ancestors
of
ours
who
were
buried
with
their
axes
and
bows
and
arrows
and
the
like
,
same
as
if
they
were
livin
’
on
just
the
same
as
they
used
to
.
I
don
’
t
know
,
"
he
added
,
looking
round
the
table
in
a
shamefaced
way
,
"
that
I
wouldn
’
t
feel
more
homely
myself
if
I
was
put
away
with
my
old
.
450
Express
and
the
fowlin
’
-
piece
,
the
shorter
one
with
the
rubbered
stock
,
and
a
clip
or
two
of
cartridges
—
just
a
fool
’
s
fancy
,
of
course
,
but
there
it
is
.
How
does
it
strike
you
,
Herr
Professor
?
"
"
Well
,
"
said
Summerlee
,
"
since
you
ask
my
opinion
,
it
strikes
me
as
an
indefensible
throwback
to
the
Stone
Age
or
before
it
.
I
’
m
of
the
twentieth
century
myself
,
and
would
wish
to
die
like
a
reasonable
civilized
man
.
I
don
’
t
know
that
I
am
more
afraid
of
death
than
the
rest
of
you
,
for
I
am
an
oldish
man
,
and
,
come
what
may
,
I
can
’
t
have
very
much
longer
to
live
;
but
it
is
all
against
my
nature
to
sit
waiting
without
a
struggle
like
a
sheep
for
the
butcher
.
Is
it
quite
certain
,
Challenger
,
that
there
is
nothing
we
can
do
?
