He
pulled
a
cheap
silver
watch
from
his
own
pocket
and
laid
it
in
the
doctor
's
hand
.
"
Me
bring
,
"
said
he
,
struggling
painfully
with
his
scant
English
,
"
other
watchy
tomorrow
.
"
Then
he
departed
downheartedly
with
his
capsules
.
"
A
very
ignorant
race
of
people
,
sir
,
"
said
the
doctor
,
as
he
slipped
the
watch
into
his
pocket
.
"
He
seems
to
have
mistaken
my
directions
for
taking
the
physic
for
the
fee
.
However
,
it
is
all
right
.
He
owes
me
an
account
,
anyway
.
The
chances
are
that
he
wo
n't
bring
the
other
watch
.
You
ca
n't
depend
on
anything
they
promise
you
.
About
that
drink
,
now
?
How
did
you
come
to
Coralio
,
Mr.
Smith
?
I
was
not
aware
that
any
boats
except
the
Karlsefin
had
arrived
for
some
days
.
"
The
two
leaned
against
the
deserted
bar
;
and
Madama
set
out
a
bottle
without
waiting
for
the
doctor
's
order
.
There
was
no
dust
on
it
.
After
they
had
drank
twice
Smith
said
:
"
You
say
there
were
no
passengers
on
the
Karlsefin
,
Doc
?
Are
you
sure
about
that
?
It
seems
to
me
I
heard
somebody
down
on
the
beach
say
that
there
was
one
or
two
aboard
.
"
"
They
were
mistaken
,
sir
.
I
myself
went
out
and
put
all
hands
through
a
medical
examination
,
as
usual
.
The
Karlsefin
sails
as
soon
as
she
gets
her
bananas
loaded
,
which
will
be
about
daylight
in
the
morning
,
and
she
got
everything
ready
this
afternoon
.
No
,
sir
,
there
was
no
passenger
list
.
Like
that
Three
--
Star
?
A
French
schooner
landed
two
slooploads
of
it
a
month
ago
.
If
any
customs
duties
on
it
went
to
the
distinguished
republic
of
Anchuria
you
may
have
my
hat
.
If
you
wo
n't
have
another
,
come
out
and
let
's
sit
in
the
cool
a
while
.
It
is
n't
often
we
exiles
get
a
chance
to
talk
with
somebody
from
the
outside
world
.
"
The
doctor
brought
out
another
chair
to
the
sidewalk
for
his
new
acquaintance
.
The
two
seated
themselves
.
"
You
are
a
man
of
the
world
,
"
said
Dr.
Gregg
;
"
a
man
of
travel
and
experience
.
Your
decision
in
a
matter
of
ethics
and
,
no
doubt
,
on
the
points
of
equity
,
ability
and
professional
probity
should
be
of
value
.
I
would
be
glad
if
you
will
listen
to
the
history
of
a
case
that
I
think
stands
unique
in
medical
annals
.
"
About
nine
years
ago
,
while
I
was
engaged
in
the
practice
of
medicine
in
my
native
city
,
I
was
called
to
treat
a
case
of
contusion
of
the
skull
.
I
made
the
diagnosis
that
a
splinter
of
bone
was
pressing
upon
the
brain
,
and
that
the
surgical
operation
known
as
trepanning
was
required
.
However
,
as
the
patient
was
a
gentleman
of
wealth
and
position
,
I
called
in
for
consultation
Dr.
--
"
Smith
rose
from
his
chair
,
and
laid
a
hand
,
soft
with
apology
,
upon
the
doctor
's
shirt
sleeve
.
