.....
Old Watty understood all right. He just patted my shoulder and said, “That’s no shame to ye—do y’good, bo’. I’ll go and tell the Major.” And he went out quickly, and I heard his voice on the verandah, and I think I heard Mr. Garfield say, “Thank God.” But he’d never let me see he was one bit anxious.
Watty came back presently, and he told me I’d have to come to him twice a week for a while. He said he couldn’t begin the real treatment until he’d got my leg obedient. I didn’t understand it, but he said that I’d worried until all the muscles and things were tense and stiff, and he’d got to work that out of them. That’s as near as I can put it, and I suppose any doctor would laugh at the idea; but I bet Watty knew what he was talking about.
