"Better get him into the car, Nick, and take him to the nearest hospital," I advised.
"Hospital?" smiled Nick. "The nearest approach to one is at the Castle barracks. You are the best medico we have in Bharbazonia, Dale. Get busy yourself."
Teju Okio edged slowly up with the car until his white lights shone upon the scene in the road.
"Is he badly hurt?" called the General from his seat beside the driver.
"We do not know the extent of his injuries, General," I said, "he is unconscious."
"Who is he, Nick?"
"Haven't an idea."
The lamplight fell upon the boy's face.
"Good heavens," exclaimed the General, "get him into the machine as quickly as possible. We must procure medical assistance at once. On, on, to Dhalmatia Castle. This is the Red Fox's son, Prince Raoul, the future King of Bharbazonia. He must not die. Hurry! Hurry! for God's sake!"
