SYNOPSIS Dr. John Wolfe, young and capable assistant of the inefficient old Dr. Montague Threadgold. is shocked at the pollution he finds everywhere in the little town of Navestock. The young doctor's greatest obstacle in trying to better conditions is the bitter resentment of the people themselves. The affable Threadgold appears more interested in humoring his patients and fattening his purse than he is in curing their ills. He cautions Wolfe against using necessary "ex- ! pensive" medicines when the "ordinary” preparations will do. Wolfe [ would be tempted to give up if it ( were not for lovely, young Jess Mascall. whose sincerity and courageous outlook are an incentive to keep fighting. Filled with curiosity as to how Wolfe spends his time, Mrs. ThrTartgolrf search** his room and finds a map he has prepared showing Navestock’s polluted areas. [ She informs her husband of what she calls Wolfe's "gross disloyalty and underhand spying” and suggests that her husband either make him discontinue his researches or discharge him. Jasper Turrell, the brewer, whose enmity Wolfe had ' incurred for complaining of the condition of the former's property, calls on the Rev. Robert Flemming. The genial rector is indifferent to Turrell’s ranting about Wolfe. The ■ clergyman cares little for Turrell, accepting him as part of Navestock. Flemming had long ago learned to [ take evil as a part of life. CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE Flemming, like many good men, i left everything in the hands of God. He stretched out a compassionate hand to touch the sufferer, but he did not draw aside the cloth that covered the sore. Sometimes, though very occasionally, he had been troubled, w’aking from his pleasant, patriarchal lethargy with the start of one who is wakened by a vague cry at night. Things had occurred that had shaken his placid optimism. He had : rubbed his eyes and looked about him. only to see what seemed to him Inevitable suffering and poverty that his own creed had sought to [ beautify Moreover, a man of ' Robert Flemming’s sociability could not have lived for twenty years in • town without being moulded to some of its characteristics. We are ! like stones in a stream, rubbing and polishing one another. The people of Navestock—that is to say. those who had some say in the life of the town —detested interference. Bob Flemming was a man of the world—so far as Navestock was I concerned. The old machinery jolted j on. rustily, clumsily, and without : coercion. Now and again Bob Flem- ! ming had roused himself to pour I in a litt-'e oil. The rector went in to his tea. taking it like a bachelor on a small table in his study His brown spaniel came waddling in, and laid himself down in a patch of sunlight at his master’s feet "What about this fellow Wolfe’” It was Flemming’s hour for reading The Times, but, though he opened the paper, the subject of his conversation with Jasper Turrell intruded itself, and edged the parai graphs aside. "A young man—of course. That - is to say—very old. We grow young again. Toby, sit up, old chap. Time for sugar " The spaniel sat up on bis hind j legs, caught the sugar on his nose, made it bounce in the air. and then ' swallowed it at the second fail. ‘"Strawberries This hot weather i will soon bring ’em to an end " He had pulled the dish towards

Jane?” I “She says Mrs. Baker is dying, i ' and they’d be pleased if you’d go.” '■ Flemming put down his paper. 1 “Tell them I’ll come, Jane, I’ll come at once.” I The room in Bung Row where the : woman lay dying was like a dark i • hole when compared with Robert > Flemming’s sun-lit study. A wooden t • bedstead stood in one corner with t one of its legs propped on half a I I brick. The woman lying there had < t been brought to the very last stages t > of emaciation. Her nose was pinch- i ■ ed. and no broader than a child’s > little finger, and the back of her f head was a bulging protuberance 1 overhanging her miserable peck. I 1 The face was the colour of parch--5 ment, and made up of bony ridges ' - and starved hollows that caught the I shadows. Her hands rested palm ■ upwards ‘on the coverlet. Her lids 1 • were half-closed, and between them s showed the dull, glazed eyes of one starved to death. A faint movement 5 of the bed-clothes showed that the ’ woman still breathed. 1 The rector came in, bending his I < head, and holding his hat in his I ■ hand He saw a tall man rise from < r the chair beside the bed The latch ■ of the door that led into the back I • kitchen was clicking up and down, i 1 and something scuffled and rubbed I against the door. “The doctor, is it not?” i ‘ “Yes" "Mr. Wolfe?” i “Yes. I am afraid it is too late, < • sir.” j e Robert Flemming set his hat on I s the window-sill, and glanced at the • woman in the bed. He put his hand i - into his pocket for the little Bible that he carried, but the action was t slow and almost half-hearted, as ? though Wolfe’s wordt had inspired ■ e him suddenly with curious self- i consciousness. He was caught* be- i d tween the act and the thought, like i 1, a man brought to a halt by j. hand n on his shoulder. The latcb kept clicking up and i r down, “Someone shut out?” sl Wolfe turned a grave and shad (

The eternal sleep was weigh ing upon her eyelids. “They ought to have sent for me before,” “It was very sudden at the last. 1 believe they sent yesterday." “No. I heard nothing of it. | must ask.” He stood heavily irresolute, and then sat down on the chair beside the bed. His hand still groped in hjs pocket, but presently he withdrew it without the book, as though a feeling of infTectualness possessed him. “She won’t know you, sir.” “No? Nevertheless ” He went down on his knees and prayed. The latch of the inner door rattled despairingly. “Muvver. Muwer!” Wolfe’s mouth twitched. Robert Flemming raised his head. “Oughtn't we ?” “I think it better not.” “Muwer!" “I would.” Wolfe went to the door and drew back the wooden bolt. As he did so the woman ceased to breathe The door was pushed open and a little -air-haired chap came squeezing through. He dodged under Wolfe’s arm. gave a stare at the rector, and then scrambled up on to the bed.
