His physician, a Canadlan who conscientiously did his duty for the sake of humanity regardless of nationality, pulled him through by dint of great ef- fort. In the course of a lengthy convalescence the doctor and his patient became quite chummy. They talked of this and that,. ex- changed confidences, There came then the day when the doctor "moved his éliarge from the hospital in his personal car, and as they were driving along a thought oc- curred" to him, "Now that we're good friends," the doctor said in effect, "tell me, would you try to escape from my.custody?
