A gentleman to see you, Doctor. From across the common a clock sounded the half-hour. Ten-thirty! I said. A late visitor. Show him up, if you please. I pushed my writing aside and tilted the lamp-shade, as footsteps sounded on the landing. The next moment I had jumped to my feet, for a tall, lean man, with his square-cut, clean-shaven face sun-baked to the hue of coffee, entered and extended both hands, with a cry: Good old Petrie! Didn't expect me, I'll swear! It was Nayland Smith-whom I had thought to be in Burma! Smith, I said, and gripped his hands hard, this is a delightful surprise! Whatever-however- Excuse me, Petrie! he broke in. Don't put it down to the sun! And he put out the lamp, plunging the room into darkness. I was too surprised to speak. No doubt you will think me mad, he continued, and, dimly, I could see him at the window, peering out into the road, but before you are many hours older you will know that I have good reason to be cautious.
