Suicide
!
That
’
s
what
I
’
ll
have
to
write
to
my
owners
directly
I
get
in
.
”
“
Unless
you
manage
to
recover
him
before
tomorrow
,
”
I
assented
,
dispassionately
.
.
.
.
“
I
mean
,
alive
.
”
He
mumbled
something
which
I
really
did
not
catch
,
and
I
turned
my
ear
to
him
in
a
puzzled
manner
.
He
fairly
bawled
:
“
The
land
—
I
say
,
the
mainland
is
at
least
seven
miles
off
my
anchorage
.
”
“
About
that
.
”
My
lack
of
excitement
,
of
curiosity
,
of
surprise
,
of
any
sort
of
pronounced
interest
,
began
to
arouse
his
distrust
.
But
except
for
the
felicitous
pretense
of
deafness
I
had
not
tried
to
pretend
anything
.
I
had
felt
utterly
incapable
of
playing
the
part
of
ignorance
properly
,
and
therefore
was
afraid
to
try
.
It
is
also
certain
that
he
had
brought
some
ready
-
made
suspicions
with
him
,
and
that
he
viewed
my
politeness
as
a
strange
and
unnatural
phenomenon
.
And
yet
how
else
could
I
have
received
him
?
Not
heartily
!
That
was
impossible
for
psychological
reasons
,
which
I
need
not
state
here
.
My
only
object
was
to
keep
off
his
inquiries
.
Surlily
?
Yes
,
but
surliness
might
have
provoked
a
point
-
blank
question
.
From
its
novelty
to
him
and
from
its
nature
,
punctilious
courtesy
was
the
manner
best
calculated
to
restrain
the
man
.
But
there
was
the
danger
of
his
breaking
through
my
defense
bluntly
.
I
could
not
,
I
think
,
have
met
him
by
a
direct
lie
,
also
for
psychological
(
not
moral
)
reasons
.
If
he
had
only
known
how
afraid
I
was
of
his
putting
my
feeling
of
identity
with
the
other
to
the
test
!
But
,
strangely
enough
—
(
I
thought
of
it
only
afterwards
)
—
I
believe
that
he
was
not
a
little
disconcerted
by
the
reverse
side
of
that
weird
situation
,
by
something
in
me
that
reminded
him
of
the
man
he
was
seeking
—
suggested
a
mysterious
similitude
to
the
young
fellow
he
had
distrusted
and
disliked
from
the
first
.
However
that
might
have
been
,
the
silence
was
not
very
prolonged
.
He
took
another
oblique
step
.
