I said weakly, "you were right, doctor. I'm afraid i have been talking too much. Could i have some water, please?" "of course, my boy, of course." he brought some, watched me drink it, and said, "that feel better?" "thank you." my voice was very faint. I moved my lips several times, as if speaking, but no words came. Marston, alarmed, put his ear close to my mouth to make out what i was trying to say, and i murmured, slowly and distinctly, "my thighbone is not broken, but pretend it is." he started, eyes reflecting astonishment, opened his mouth to speak, and then closed it again. He wasn't all that slow, the old boy. He nodded slightly and said, "ready for me to begin?" he began. Susan beresford helped him. My leg was a gory sight but looked worse than it was. One bullet had passed directly through the leg, but the other two had just torn superficial gashes on the inside, and it was from those that most of the blood had come. All the while he was working dr. Marston kept up, for the sake of the guard, a running commentary on the extent and severity of my wounds, and if i hadn't known he was lying fluently he would have made me feel very ill indeed.
