I
took
a
chair
outside
the
door
.
As
yet
there
was
no
need
for
me
to
risk
coming
again
under
the
subtle
influence
of
last
night
.
Naturally
my
thoughts
went
revolving
round
the
main
incidents
of
the
last
day
and
night
,
and
I
found
myself
arriving
at
strange
conclusions
,
doubts
,
conjectures
;
but
I
did
not
lose
myself
,
as
on
last
night
,
in
trains
of
thought
.
The
sense
of
the
present
was
ever
with
me
,
and
I
really
felt
as
should
a
sentry
on
guard
.
Thinking
is
not
a
slow
process
;
and
when
it
is
earnest
the
time
can
pass
quickly
.
It
seemed
a
very
short
time
indeed
till
the
door
,
usually
left
ajar
,
was
pulled
open
and
Dr.
Winchester
emerged
,
taking
off
his
respirator
as
he
came
.
His
act
,
when
he
had
it
off
,
was
demonstrative
of
his
keenness
.
He
turned
up
the
outside
of
the
wrap
and
smelled
it
carefully
.
"
I
am
going
now
,
"
he
said
.
"
I
shall
come
early
in
the
morning
;
unless
,
of
course
,
I
am
sent
for
before
.
But
all
seems
well
tonight
.
"
The
next
to
appear
was
Sergeant
Daw
,
who
went
quietly
into
the
room
and
took
the
seat
vacated
by
the
Doctor
.
I
still
remained
outside
;
but
every
few
minutes
looked
into
the
room
.
This
was
rather
a
form
than
a
matter
of
utility
,
for
the
room
was
so
dark
that
coming
even
from
the
dimly-lighted
corridor
it
was
hard
to
distinguish
anything
.
A
little
before
twelve
o'clock
Miss
Trelawny
came
from
her
room
.
Before
coming
to
her
father
's
she
went
into
that
occupied
by
Nurse
Kennedy
.
After
a
couple
of
minutes
she
came
out
,
looking
,
I
thought
,
a
trifle
more
cheerful
.
She
had
her
respirator
in
her
hand
,
but
before
putting
it
on
,
asked
me
if
anything
special
had
occurred
since
she
had
gone
to
lie
down
.
I
answered
in
a
whisper
--
there
was
no
loud
talking
in
the
house
tonight
--
that
all
was
safe
,
was
well
.
She
then
put
on
her
respirator
,
and
I
mine
;
and
we
entered
the
room
.
The
Detective
and
the
Nurse
rose
up
,
and
we
took
their
places
.
Sergeant
Daw
was
the
last
to
go
out
;
he
closed
the
door
behind
him
as
we
had
arranged
.
For
a
while
I
sat
quiet
,
my
heart
beating
.
The
place
was
grimly
dark
.
The
only
light
was
a
faint
one
from
the
top
of
the
lamp
which
threw
a
white
circle
on
the
high
ceiling
,
except
the
emerald
sheen
of
the
shade
as
the
light
took
its
under
edges
.
Even
the
light
only
seemed
to
emphasize
the
blackness
of
the
shadows
.
These
presently
began
to
seem
,
as
on
last
night
,
to
have
a
sentience
of
their
own
.
I
did
not
myself
feel
in
the
least
sleepy
;
and
each
time
I
went
softly
over
to
look
at
the
patient
,
which
I
did
about
every
ten
minutes
,
I
could
see
that
Miss
Trelawny
was
keenly
alert
.
Every
quarter
of
an
hour
one
or
other
of
the
policemen
looked
in
through
the
partly
opened
door
.
Each
time
both
Miss
Trelawny
and
I
said
through
our
mufflers
,
"
all
right
,
"
and
the
door
was
closed
again
.
As
the
time
wore
on
,
the
silence
and
the
darkness
seemed
to
increase
.
The
circle
of
light
on
the
ceiling
was
still
there
,
but
it
seemed
less
brilliant
than
at
first
.
The
green
edging
of
the
lamp-shade
became
like
Maori
greenstone
rather
than
emerald
.
The
sounds
of
the
night
without
the
house
,
and
the
starlight
spreading
pale
lines
along
the
edges
of
the
window-cases
,
made
the
pall
of
black
within
more
solemn
and
more
mysterious
.
We
heard
the
clock
in
the
corridor
chiming
the
quarters
with
its
silver
bell
till
two
o'clock
;
and
then
a
strange
feeling
came
over
me
.
I
could
see
from
Miss
Trelawny
's
movement
as
she
looked
round
,
that
she
also
had
some
new
sensation
.
The
new
detective
had
just
looked
in
;
we
two
were
alone
with
the
unconscious
patient
for
another
quarter
of
an
hour
.
My
heart
began
to
beat
wildly
.
There
was
a
sense
of
fear
over
me
.
Not
for
myself
;
my
fear
was
impersonal
.
It
seemed
as
though
some
new
person
had
entered
the
room
,
and
that
a
strong
intelligence
was
awake
close
to
me
.
Something
brushed
against
my
leg
.
I
put
my
hand
down
hastily
and
touched
the
furry
coat
of
Silvio
.
