Meredith asked, turning to the surgeon. "Oh, not necessarily," the young man replied, yawning slightly behind his hand, and too long accustomed to straightforward questions to be shocked at an evident wish for a direct reply. "His chances are better, because they'll hang him if he gets well.
"I knew there must be something of that sort, or he never would have asked for my work again. He is too contemptible a man to work for." Benjamin spoke with much feeling; and he was right, too. "But here is the point," continued Meredith. "I am poorly equipped to set up business for myself, and you can teach me.
Kept on begging me to tell him if this show was fellow's only chance; and . . . I couldn't." Lenox looked intently at his friend. "That so?" The other nodded; and there was a short silence. Richardson took up a photograph of old Sir John Meredith, and examined it with critical interest. "You might have sent for Peters," Lenox said at length, "No earthly use.
I thank you again but it is not to be thought of." Disappointment angered Mrs. Davis beyond the power of old habit to control. Her broad red face turned purple and her voice trembled.

Well, what had I read within the past month? I named several books which I had been re-reading Macaulay's Essays, Meredith Townsend's Asia and Europe, and Lowes Dickinson's Modern Symposium. "Well, tell me something about Asia and Europe" he said.
It's all explained now, and Tom's name is cleared." "How do you suppose Sam Heller saw you or thought he saw you with your gay sweater on at the barn?" asked Jack. "Give it up," said Tom. "Maybe we'll find out that too." They did the next morning, when Tom and his cousin, in an interview with Doctor Meredith, told the whole story.
