Eventually the dying made clear to me that I was to return to England.

Your gift will go with you to England, Captain, one of them told me, so never fear. Be sure to give the dog a walk in a cemetery now and again.

A cemetery?

Sure, he’s a cemetery dog—didn’t you know? And they need their time among the graves. No shortage of graves here, of course, but it won’t be the same when you go back.

I thought about this, and felt a rising tide of uneasiness over my return to England.

There’s a bit of business for you to attend to there, Captain, but if England doesn’t suit you, sir, you’ll find another home. God bless you, Tyler Hawthorne, and many thanks for your kindness to me.

Before I could ask him what “bit of business” he meant, he died, and his thoughts were lost to me.
