He
seemed
to
regard
the
circumstance
as
one
of
great
significance
,
and
told
the
loungers
at
Osborn

that

his

almost

On
Lammas
Night
,
1924
,
DrHoughton
of
Aylesbury
was
hastily
summoned
by
Wilbur
Whateley
,
who
had
lashed
his
one
remaining
horse
through
the
darkness
and
telephoned
from
Osborn
's
in
the
village
.
He
found
Old
Whateley
in
a
very
grave
state
,
with
a
cardiac
action
and
stertorous
breathing
that
told
of
an
end
not
far
off
.
The
shapeless
albino
daughter
and
oddly
bearded
grandson
stood
by
the
bedside
,
whilst
from
the
vacant
abyss
overhead
there
came
a
disquieting
suggestion
of
rhythmical
surging
or
lapping
,
as
of
the
waves
on
some
level
beach
.
The
doctor
,
though
,
was
chiefly
disturbed
by
the
chattering
night
birds
outside
;
a
seemingly
limitless
legion
of
whippoorwills
that
cried
their
endless
message
in
repetitions
timed
diabolically
to
the
wheezing
gasps
of
the
dying
man
.
It
was
uncanny
and
unnatural
--
too
much
,
thought
Dr
Houghton
,
like
the
whole
of
the
region
he
had
entered
so
reluctantly
in
response
to
the
urgent
call
.

Towards
one
o'clock
Old
Whateley
gained
consciousness
,
and
interrupted
his
wheezing
to
choke
out
a
few
words
to
his
grandson
.

He
was
obviously
quite
mad
.
After
a
pause
,
during
which
the
flock
of
whippoorwills
outside
adjusted
their
cries
to
the
altered
tempo
while
some
indications
of
the
strange
hill
noises
came
from
afar
off
,
he
added
another
sentence
or
two
.
47

But
speech
gave
place
to
gasps
again
,
and
Lavinia
screamed
at
the
way
the
whippoorwills
followed
the
change
.
It
was
the
same
for
more
than
an
hour
,
when
the
final
throaty
rattle
came
.
Dr
Houghton
drew
shrunken
lids
over
the
glazing
grey
eyes
as
the
tumult
of
birds
faded
imperceptibly
to
silence
.
Lavinia
sobbed
,
but
Wilbur
only
chuckled
whilst
the
hill
noises
rumbled
faintly
.
49
'
They
did
n't
git
him

'
he
muttered
in
his
heavy
bass
voice
.

Wilbur
was
by
this
time
a
scholar
of
really
tremendous
erudition
in
his
one-sided
way
,
and
was
quietly
known
by
correspondence
to
many
librarians
in
distant
places
where
rare
and
forbidden
books
of
old
days
are
kept
.
He
was
more
and
more
hated
and
dreaded
around
Dunwich
because
of
certain
youthful
disappearances
which
suspicion
laid
vaguely
at
his
door
;
but
was
always
able
to
silence
inquiry
through
fear
or
through
use
of
that
fund
of
old-time
gold
which
still
,
as
in
his
grandfather
's
time
,
went
forth
regularly
and
increasingly
for
cattle-buying
.
He
was
now
tremendously
mature
of
aspect
,
and
his
height
,
having
reached
the
normal
adult
limit
,
seemed
inclined
to
wax
beyond
that
figure
.
In
1925
,
when
a
scholarly
correspondent
from
Miskatonic
University
called
upon
him
one
day
and
departed
pale
and
puzzled
,
he
was
fully
six
and
three-quarters
feet
tall
.
