Charles
,
although
he
was
inordinately
long
in
answering
the
summons
and
was
still
redolent
of
strange
and
noxious
laboratory
odors
when
he
did
finally
make
his
agitated
appearance
,
proved
a
far
from
recalcitrant
subject
;
and
admitted
freely
that
his
memory
and
balance
had
suffered
somewhat
from
close
application
to
abstruse
studies
.
He
offered
no
resistance
when
his
removal
to
other
quarters
was
insisted
upon
;
and
seemed
,
indeed
,
to
display
a
high
degree
of
intelligence
as
apart
from
mere
memory
.
His
conduct
would
have
sent
his
interviewers
away
in
bafflement
had
not
the
persistently
archaic
trend
of
his
speech
and
unmistakable
replacement
of
modern
by
ancient
ideas
in
his
consciousness
marked
him
out
as
one
definitely
removed
from
the
normal
.
Of
his
work
he
would
say
no
more
to
the
group
of
doctors
than
he
had
formerly
said
to
his
family
and
to
Dr.
Willett
,
and
his
frantic
note
of
the
previous
month
he
dismissed
as
mere
nerves
and
hysteria
.
He
insisted
that
this
shadowy
bungalow
possessed
no
library
possessed
no
library
or
laboratory
beyond
the
visible
ones
,
and
waxed
abstruse
in
explaining
the
absence
from
the
house
of
such
odors
as
now
saturated
all
his
clothing
.
Neighborhood
gossip
he
attributed
to
nothing
more
than
the
cheap
inventiveness
of
baffled
curiosity
.
Of
the
whereabouts
of
Dr.
Allen
he
said
he
did
not
feel
at
liberty
to
speak
definitely
,
but
assured
his
inquisitors
that
the
bearded
and
spectacled
man
would
return
when
needed
.
In
paying
off
the
stolid
Brava
who
resisted
all
questioning
by
the
visitors
,
and
in
closing
the
bungalow
which
still
seemed
to
hold
such
nighted
secrets
,
Ward
showed
no
signs
of
nervousness
save
a
barely
noticed
tendency
to
pause
as
though
listening
for
something
very
faint
.
He
was
apparently
animated
by
a
calmly
philosophic
resignation
,
as
if
he
removal
were
the
merest
transient
incident
which
would
cause
the
least
trouble
if
facilitated
and
disposed
of
once
and
for
all
.
It
was
clear
that
he
trusted
to
his
obviously
unimpaired
keenness
of
absolute
mentality
to
overcome
all
the
embarrassments
into
which
his
twisted
memory
,
his
lost
voice
and
handwriting
,
and
his
secretive
and
eccentric
behavior
had
led
him
.
His
mother
,
it
was
agreed
,
was
not
to
be
told
of
the
change
;
his
father
supplying
typed
notes
in
his
name
.
Ward
was
taken
to
the
restfully
and
picturesquely
situated
private
hospital
maintained
by
Dr.
Waite
on
Conanicut
Island
in
the
bay
,
and
subjected
to
the
closest
scrutiny
and
questioning
by
all
the
physicians
connected
with
the
case
.
It
was
then
that
the
physical
oddities
were
noticed
;
the
slackened
metabolism
,
the
altered
skin
,
and
the
disproportionate
neural
reactions
.
Dr.
Willett
was
the
most
perturbed
of
the
various
examiners
,
for
he
had
attended
Ward
all
his
life
and
could
appreciate
with
terrible
keenness
the
extent
of
his
physical
disorganization
.
Even
the
familiar
olive
mark
on
his
hip
was
gone
,
while
on
his
chest
was
a
great
black
mole
or
cicatrice
which
had
never
been
there
before
,
and
which
made
Willett
wonder
whether
the
youth
had
ever
submitted
to
any
of
the
witch
markings
reputed
to
be
inflicted
at
certain
unwholesome
nocturnal
meetings
in
wild
and
lonely
places
.
The
doctor
could
not
keep
his
mind
off
a
certain
transcribed
witch-trial
record
from
Salem
which
Charles
had
shown
him
in
the
old
non-secretive
days
,
and
which
read
:

'
Ward
's
face
,
too
,
troubled
him
horribly
,
till
at
length
he
suddenly
discovered
why
he
was
horrified
.
For
above
the
young
man
's
right
eye
was
something
which
he
had
never
previously
noticed
--
a
small
scar
or
pit
precisely
like
that
in
the
crumbled
painting
of
old
Joseph
Curwen
,
and
perhaps
attesting
some
hideous
ritualistic
inoculation
to
which
both
had
submitted
at
a
certain
stage
of
their
occult
careers
.
While
Ward
himself
was
puzzling
all
the
doctors
at
the
hospital
a
very
strict
watch
was
kept
on
all
mail
addressed
either
to
him
or
to
Dr.
Allen
,
which
Mr.
Ward
had
ordered
delivered
at
the
family
home
.
Willett
had
predicted
that
very
little
would
be
found
,
since
any
communications
of
a
vital
nature
would
probably
have
been
exchanged
by
messenger
;
but
in
the
latter
part
of
March
there
did
come
a
letter
from
Prague
for
Dr.
Allen
which
gave
both
the
doctor
and
the
father
deep
thought
.
It
was
in
a
very
crabbed
and
archaic
hand
;
and
though
clearly
not
the
effort
of
a
foreigner
,
showed
almost
as
singular
a
departure
from
modern
English
as
the
speech
of
young
Ward
himself
.
