It was hardly to be expected that in the circumstances a doctor could be fetched, though Aristea says that she and her sister tried hard to find one. At about eight o’clock that evening, however, three Germans appeared; one of them was a doctor who treated the wounded man kindly and bandaged him. When this second party of Germans had gone Aristea and Theonymphe asked anxiously what had been said. John reassured them. The Germans themselves had brought him into the house; he had made this clear, he had insisted that the women must not be harmed; and now they had better do as the Germans had advised and show lights in the house so that it should not be fired on.

About 10.30 in the evening another German doctor came and gave the wounded man an injection and promised that though the wound did indeed go right through his body it was not very dangerous and that in the morning he would be taken to hospital for better treatment. And the behaviour of this German doctor, like that of the first, was excellent.
