"But the whole thing is ridiculous. Our brains are overexcited by what took place in there. Let us go home, and sleep it off." Krag detained him with one hand, while groping in his breast pocket with the other. He presently fished out what resembled a small folding lens. The diameter of the glass did not exceed two inches.
