“
He
bore
the
operation
well
,
”
replied
the
surgeon
,
“
and
his
wounds
are
not
necessarily
fatal
.
I
told
you
that
yesterday
,
but
I
did
not
tell
you
that
something
else
probably
would
kill
him
;
and
it
will
.
He
need
not
die
from
the
accident
,
but
he
will
not
live
the
day
out
.
”
“
But
why
?
What
is
it
?
”
asked
McLean
hurriedly
.
“
We
all
dearly
love
the
boy
.
We
have
millions
among
us
to
do
anything
that
money
can
accomplish
.
Why
must
he
die
,
if
those
broken
bones
are
not
the
cause
?
”
“
That
is
what
I
am
going
to
give
you
the
opportunity
to
tell
me
,
”
replied
the
surgeon
.
“
He
need
not
die
from
the
accident
,
yet
he
is
dying
as
fast
as
his
splendid
physical
condition
will
permit
,
and
it
is
because
he
so
evidently
prefers
death
to
life
.
If
he
were
full
of
hope
and
ambition
to
live
,
my
work
would
be
easy
.
If
all
of
you
love
him
as
you
prove
you
do
,
and
there
is
unlimited
means
to
give
him
anything
he
wants
,
why
should
he
desire
death
?
”
“
Is
he
dying
?
”
demanded
McLean
.
“
He
is
,
”
said
the
surgeon
.
“
He
will
not
live
this
day
out
,
unless
some
strong
reaction
sets
in
at
once
.
He
is
so
low
,
that
preferring
death
to
life
,
nature
cannot
overcome
his
inertia
.
If
he
is
to
live
,
he
must
be
made
to
desire
life
.
Now
he
undoubtedly
wishes
for
death
,
and
that
it
come
quickly
.
”
“
Then
he
must
die
,
”
said
McLean
.
His
broad
shoulders
shook
convulsively
.
His
strong
hands
opened
and
closed
mechanically
.
“
Does
that
mean
that
you
know
what
he
desires
and
cannot
,
or
will
not
,
supply
it
?
”
McLean
groaned
in
misery
.
