The
forester
shook
his
head
,
and
smiled
.
"
Not
a
soul
living
could
tell
you
that
now
,
"
he
said
;
"
besides
,
they
say
her
body
was
removed
;
but
no
one
is
sure
of
that
either
.
"
Having
thus
spoken
,
as
time
pressed
,
he
dropped
his
axe
and
departed
,
leaving
us
to
hear
the
remainder
of
the
General
's
strange
story
.
"
My
beloved
child
,
"
he
resumed
,
"
was
now
growing
rapidly
worse
.
The
physician
who
attended
her
had
failed
to
produce
the
slightest
impression
on
her
disease
,
for
such
I
then
supposed
it
to
be
.
He
saw
my
alarm
,
and
suggested
a
consultation
.
I
called
in
an
abler
physician
,
from
Gratz
.
"
Several
days
elapsed
before
he
arrived
.
He
was
a
good
and
pious
,
as
well
as
a
leaned
man
.
Having
seen
my
poor
ward
together
,
they
withdrew
to
my
library
to
confer
and
discuss
.
I
,
from
the
adjoining
room
,
where
I
awaited
their
summons
,
heard
these
two
gentlemen
's
voices
raised
in
something
sharper
than
a
strictly
philosophical
discussion
.
I
knocked
at
the
door
and
entered
.
I
found
the
old
physician
from
Gratz
maintaining
his
theory
.
His
rival
was
combating
it
with
undisguised
ridicule
,
accompanied
with
bursts
of
laughter
.
This
unseemly
manifestation
subsided
and
the
altercation
ended
on
my
entrance
.
"
'
Sir
,
'
said
my
first
physician
,
'
my
learned
brother
seems
to
think
that
you
want
a
conjuror
,
and
not
a
doctor
.
'
"
'
Pardon
me
,
'
said
the
old
physician
from
Gratz
,
looking
displeased
,
'
I
shall
state
my
own
view
of
the
case
in
my
own
way
another
time
.
I
grieve
,
Monsieur
le
General
,
that
by
my
skill
and
science
I
can
be
of
no
use
.
Before
I
go
I
shall
do
myself
the
honor
to
suggest
something
to
you
.
'
"
He
seemed
thoughtful
,
and
sat
down
at
a
table
and
began
to
write
.
"
Profoundly
disappointed
,
I
made
my
bow
,
and
as
I
turned
to
go
,
the
other
doctor
pointed
over
his
shoulder
to
his
companion
who
was
writing
,
and
then
,
with
a
shrug
,
significantly
touched
his
forehead
.
"
This
consultation
,
then
,
left
me
precisely
where
I
was
.
I
walked
out
into
the
grounds
,
all
but
distracted
.
The
doctor
from
Gratz
,
in
ten
or
fifteen
minutes
,
overtook
me
.
He
apologized
for
having
followed
me
,
but
said
that
he
could
not
conscientiously
take
his
leave
without
a
few
words
more
.
He
told
me
that
he
could
not
be
mistaken
;
no
natural
disease
exhibited
the
same
symptoms
;
and
that
death
was
already
very
near
.
There
remained
,
however
,
a
day
,
or
possibly
two
,
of
life
.
If
the
fatal
seizure
were
at
once
arrested
,
with
great
care
and
skill
her
strength
might
possibly
return
.
But
all
hung
now
upon
the
confines
of
the
irrevocable
.
One
more
assault
might
extinguish
the
last
spark
of
vitality
which
is
,
every
moment
,
ready
to
die
.
