DR. THORNDYKE listened to my recital of the history of the tragedy, not only with patience, but with close attention and apparently keen interest, interrupting me only at rare intervals to ask a question or elucidate some point that was not quite clear.

"I am afraid," I said, "that I have been rather victimizing you and trespassing on your very great patience."
