No, doctor, I will not trust the hand of Doctor Kline, skillful as it may be, to do this work; for I cannot be sure that a glass too much may not have been taken to steady the nerves a night's excess of wine may have left unstrung." Doctor Hillhouse sat with closely knit brows for some time after Mr. Carlton ceased speaking.
"Your fears exaggerate everything," returned Doctor Hillhouse, in an assuring voice. "She will go into a tranquil sleep, and while dreaming pleasant dreams we will quickly dissect out the tumor, and leave the freed organs to continue their healthy action under the old laws of unobstructed life." "When ought it to be done?" asked Mr. Carlton the tremor coming back into his voice.
Carlton were divided on the question as to who could best perform the operation, some favoring Doctor Kline and some Doctor Hillhouse. The only objection urged by any one against the latter was on account of his age. Mr. and Mrs. Carlton had no doubt or hesitation on the subject. Their confidence in the skill of Doctor Hillhouse was complete. As for Doctor Kline, Mr.
Alcock's and there drank and had good sport, with his bringing out so many sorts of cheese. Then to the Hillhouse at Chatham, where I never was before, and I found a pretty pleasant house and am pleased with the arms that hang up there.
This consideration was made the chief point in the debate, in which Albert Gallatin took a leading part in favor of the resolution, well supported by Madison, Livingston, Giles, and Baldwin, and others of less note. It was opposed by Smith, of South Carolina, Murray, Harper, Hillhouse, and others.
A kind of fatality seems to have attended this party." The doctor gave a little shiver, which was observed by Doctor Kline. "Not a nervous chill?" said the latter, manifesting concern. "No; a moral chill, if I may use such a term," replied Doctor Hillhouse "a shudder at the thought of what might have been as one of the consequences of Mr. Birtwell's liberal dispensation of wine."
The knife will not have to go very deep among the veins and arteries." Doctor Hillhouse did not correct his error. "How long will it take?" queried the anxious husband, to whom the thought of cutting down into the tender flesh of his wife was so painful that it completely unmanned him. "Not very long," answered the doctor. "Ten minutes?" "Yes, or maybe a little longer." "She will feel no pain?"
Lieutenant Hillhouse aroused them early in the morning by a message; and as Mrs. Seymour was not ready to receive him, Betty ran out and met him at the door. "You look so fresh and bright that I am sure your night spent upon the roadside has not harmed you," said the officer, bidding her good-morning.
But the death in 1802 of this accomplished gentleman sent his pupil then a stripling of thirteen to Yale. He entered the freshman 1802-3 January-term class, and, "excepting the poet Hillhouse, two weeks his junior, James Cooper was the youngest student in college." There "his progress in his studies is said to have been honorable to his talents."
Birtwell's had been to him one of debauch instead of restrained conviviality. The extremity of his wife's condition, and his almost insane appeals that he would hold her back from death, shocked still further the doctor's already quivering nerves. The imminent peril in which Doctor Hillhouse found Mrs. Ridley determined him to call in another physician for consultation.
