"Doctor, I'll pay the bill," said Fred, "as long as it happened in here."
"Very well. Ten dollars, please," and the doctor held out his hand for the money.
Fred handed it to him, saying:
"Be kind enough to get out. You're a hog on two legs."
"What!" and the doctor gasped as if for breath.
"Get out of here, you old hog!" repeated Fred.
The doctor struck at him, his face livid with rage. The officer caught him by the arm, saying:
"If you raise a disturbance here I shall have to arrest you, sir."
"Did you hear him insult me?" cried the doctor.
"Yes, but you can't fight here."
