"Thank you, Miss McIntyre; I won't detain you longer. Logan," to the morgue master, "ask Dr. Stone to step here." Almost immediately Stone reentered the room and hurried to the platform. "Would two or more capsules of amyl nitrite constitute a lethal dose?" asked Penfield. "They would be very apt to finish a feeble heart," replied Stone.
Nitrite of amyl was then administered by inhalation: at first, three to five drops; then, ten to twenty; and finally, more or less was poured on the handkerchief without being measured. During each inhalation the condition of the patient rapidly improved, but as quickly grew worse, so that the drug was continued at short intervals all night, ten grammes in all having been used.
Stomach-tube and free lavage; cold affusion; drawing forward tongue; artificial respiration; galvanism and suspension with head downward. Inhalation of nitrite of amyl; strychnine hypodermically. Fatal Dose. When swallowed, from 1 to 2 ounces. Method of Extraction from the Stomach.
There were no dishes on the long table; but at the head of it two chairs; and at the foot, one; and in front of that, lying on the table, a folded bit of paper. Carmichael picked it up and opened it. It was his prescription for the nitrite of amyl. He hesitated a moment; then refolded the paper and put it in his vest-pocket.
Another part of the letter told how General Bakitch and the six thousand men who had been interned with him by the Chinese authorities on the River Amyl had received arms and started to join with Ataman Annenkoff, who had been interned in Kuldja, with the ultimate intention of linking up with Baron Ungern.
Ah, delicate Ariel, tricksy sprite, the only way to get you is to burn up the solid body. The possibility of rare creation depends on rare material, on spirit-like tenuity. And that is what the world goes into. There is a substance called nitrite of amyl, known to many as a medicine for heart disease. It is applied by inhaling its odor a style of very much rarefied application.
So as soon as I could I telephoned to Philip to meet me at the police court and to bring some amyl nitrite capsules with him." "And the note, Sylvester, which you saw Miss McIntyre give me in court," concluded Rochester, as Helen paused, "told me to hand the capsules to the burglar and to defend him in court. I did both, although badly puzzled by the request." Rochester hesitated.
A sword-cane told him." The musician's lips twitched, his face had contracted, his hand now was on his breast. "I wish Cassy would hurry. She's gone for amyl." "Is it far?" "The corner. Are you going to do anything?" Jones shook his head. "I don't need to." The sunken eyes were upon him. "Why do you say that?" "You are an honest man." The sunken eyes wavered.
It freed them from the thrall that held them. Regnault's head fell back. "The amyl!" cried O'Neill, and they were all about him. "The amyl where is it?" Regnault's face was a mask of paralyzed pain; but the silver patch- box that held the capsules was not on the table. It took a minute to find it on the floor. O'Neill smashed a couple, and thrust his hand into the waxen face and waited.
At length, after much work with acids, filtration, and distillation, we determined that a neurotic had been employed, and that its action on the vasomotor system of the nerves was very similar, if not identical, with nitrate of amyl. Further than that, even Tatham, expert in such matters, could not proceed.
