They liked Ford when he was sober, and so they hated to shoot him, though that seemed the only way in which they might dampen his enthusiasm for blood. Tom said that, if he failed to improve in temper by the next day, he would try and land him in jail, though it did seem rigorous treatment for so common a fault as getting drunk.

Mrs. Barrett emptied her cup bravely. "When shall we call again?" she asked. "You need not come again," Fong Wu replied. "Each day you have only to dampen the bandages from these." He handed her a green-flowered box containing twelve tiny compartments; in each was a phial. "And I sha'n't have to take any more of this this awful stuff?" she demanded gaily, giving back the cup.
