"He was only operated upon for appendicitis a fortnight ago, and they say that he has angina pectoris amongst other complications. They brought him straight from the hospital. Seems he's crazy to get back to England to die." The two men passed out of hearing. Jocelyn flicked the ash from the cigarette which he had lighted.
"Judging superficially I made no thorough examination," Stone explained parenthetically, "I should say that Mr. Rochester was right when he stated that Turnbull died from an acute attack of angina pectoris." "How did Mr. Rochester come to make that assertion and where?" "Immediately after Turnbull's death," replied Stone. "Mr. Rochester, who shared his apartment, defended him in court. Mr.
"He had latterly developed symptoms of angina pectoris," explained the family physician; "but I had not anticipated a fatal termination so soon. I was called about two o'clock this morning, and found Lord Southery in a dangerously exhausted condition. I did all that was possible, and Sir Frank Narcombe was sent for. But shortly before his arrival the patient expired."
Now, Ferguson, to put your charges against Rochester in concrete form, you believe that he was insanely jealous of Jimmie Turnbull, that he recognized him in the Police Court in his burglar disguise, slipped a dose of aconitine in a glass of water which Turnbull drank, and after declaring that his friend had died from angina pectoris, disappeared. Is that all the case you have against him?"
He met a tradesman, who told him that the tenant of the third floor, M. Watelet, had just died suddenly of angina pectoris. Christophe was filled with pity, not so much for his unhappy neighbor as for the child who was left alone in the world. M. Watelet was not known to have any relations, and there was every reason to believe that he had left the girl almost entirely unprovided for.
Pray Heaven it is not my wife or daughter." On that score, however, his anxiety was speedily removed, for within two hours he was seized with a violent attack of angina pectoris, and died before morning. Mr. Elliott O'Donnell, to whose article on "Banshees" we are indebted for the above, adds: "The Banshee never manifests itself to the person whose death it is prognosticating.
It will be the greatest disappointment of my life if I don't go out with Halley's comet." He looked so strong, and full of color and vitality. One could not believe that his words held a prophecy. Yet the pains recurred with increasing frequency and severity; his malady, angina pectoris, was making progress. And how bravely he bore it all! He never complained, never bewailed.
Unless they are in the last stages of angina pectoris they are mine in ten minutes after I begin to talk. Women and men I win 'em as they come. Now, you wouldn't think women would fancy a man with a face like mine, would you?" "Oh, yes, Mr. Tate," said I. "History is bright and fiction dull with homely men who have charmed women. There seems "
"Oh, dear, no! nothing but the painful constriction that marks any ordinary fatal attack of angina pectoris. There's a rum breach of promise case in the paper to-day. You should read it; it'll make you laugh." I had no more inclination to laugh than to sigh; but I accepted the change of subject with an equanimity now habitual to me.
Therefore with the distinct understanding that if the diagnosis is correct the name is a misnomer, it may be allowable to discuss under this heading some of the attacks which may simulate an angina and must be separated from a true angina.
