If he chose to continue. After an interval he said you see i was in House myself that again. What else could one say How was simple enough. I d been quartered with an aunt and Uncle who lived at the other end of the town. I was lonely and miserable with rather i should say i was lonely and miserable without my father. Just a prisoner in an enormous shabby vicarage that remember it was the evening War was declared was so excited by the news that i had my first Chance to escape. I took it. I ran across the town aiming for Home. I climbed Over the Garden Wall from the Side Footpath. Nobody saw me or would have cared much if they had. 1 thought the House was empty. I went to the surgery. It was always there but that afternoon More than usual because a cupboard usually kept locked was half a yes i remember the evidence about so i had a Nice game with some taking the corks out and sniffing. Damn Lucky i did t Poison perhaps damned unlucky when you come to think about it. Suddenly i heard foot Steps in the Hall. I was scared. I shut the cupboard As Quick As i could and pushed away the bottles on a shelf where there were other bottles i did t want her to know i d been touching you knew who it of yes. Her walk was quite unmistakable. Presently she came in and found me. She was very hot was a very hot Day and she d been out in the Sun. You she began but she did t grumble As much As i d expected. I think she was tired. Where s your she asked. I said i did t know. He s never Here when he s she said. Then she went to the shelf and took some pills out of a bottle. I be got a bad she said and i want to lie Down. Fetch a Glass of water to my bedroom so i did and that was How it happened. All quite by Accident you yes i Don t you believe May i say Don t really know. At any rate Why did t you Tell All this to the i never had a Chance. I was Only too glad to get away i d always been blamed for everything and i thought i should be again. So 1 ran Back to my Uncle s House. They thought i was of my they called used to have nerves when i was a and you did t Tell anybody what had Well they did t Tell me any thing what clo you they never told me anything was wrong. It was weeks after wards they said my parents had both gone away and i could t see them. Years later i found out what had really happened. It he hesitated for the As a considerable Shock to there was another Long pause during which i recollected As much As i could of Gerald s reputation As a child. In the Little town there had gathered quite a sizable legend of his precocious unreliability. Be or if you cared to use the less flattering word he told the most astounding lies. He would in the Days when i had met him once or twice at children s Par people that he had seen an elephant in Shaw Gate. Or a col Lison Between two steam rollers going at fun l Speed or a Man with three notes. And once. I remember he told a few of us very solemnly that his father had bought a Cical bed. Hoi he had picked up the word we could Only guess but it was Clear that in his mind i deathbed was a particular kind of bed that one to a furniture shop to buy so that was what he told us As calmly As you please. We thought it Amus ing that his own childish ignorance should so completely prove him a liar. Thinking of All this. I said Ell it s a pity you did t Tell the Story when it might have done some yes but i should t have been believed. At least i very much doubt it. Nobody Ever believed me Why you Don t even believe me now. Do you honestly May i the third simply Don t know what to be i Don t blame you. We none of us know much about what really happens. Or has happened. The real truth is often because it s a dark truth. It seems to me that we re All children of the dead who should t have dead who were put to death. And they wait with us All the time hoping Well under stand and learn something but we Don to and we can t do anything about it. Is All that too mystical for i Don t quite know what you he laughed As he answered Why should you to hell with you anyway. That s How you make me i smiled liking him a Little. After a Short silence i said i m interested in the German i liked the look of her. I think i saw her i saw her in the court. There used to be a motor bus that made journeys be tween the foot of Shaw Gate and Lissington seats faced each other and one Day i sat opposite someone i could t help staring at afterwards when i described her to others they said she must have been the foreign girl who works at the Little doctors so maybe she was. She wore a Brown coat and a Black fur hat like a Fez. But you knew her Well of course. Tell me what she was his face lit with the beginnings of excitement. She was of i can t Tell you. It s the nearest thing to heaven in my Only meaning heaven memory i have her and of him. The Little Little father. I used to watch them smile at each other. I used to go to sleep after they had touched me. They were that s what s so hard to they were Ever real. Do you mind we take a Good we went into the streets of Calder Bury where it was growing dusk and lights were blinking from shops and houses and far ahead at the top of Shaw Gate the towers of the Cathedral lifted i substantially into the darkening East. Calder Bury had survived though How narrowly none could say. We passed the House where the Little doctor had lived and then along Briargate we passed the jail where the Little doctor had died. That was being pulled Down it was far too big and the site had grown valuable. I was still a Little bothered by not knowing How much to believe of All that Gerald had told me. But i Felt there must be a sort of truth in it somewhere. I said you re probably right and there in t a lot any of us can but there ought to he answered so desperately that i was startled. And.
