"Ted, dear?"
"Yes?"
"I'm so glad I hurt my knee!"
Mr. Claybourne appeared at the door.
"The carriage is ready, Ted. You'll have to take the horses in by yourself. Help me to carry the patient. I couldn't get Dr. Sinclair, but he'll be waiting for us at the house when we get back." We gathered Helen up between us and carried her out.
"You'll look after Leonidas too, won't you, Ted?" she said. "My knee will be enough for mother for one day."
The carriage drove away with Mr. Claybourne still shouting his thanks at the Tylers, with an "If I can do anything for you, Henry, look in at my office Monday." As "Henery" and I made our way to the barn to get Leonidas and the horses I said: "Mr. Tyler, if you will also stop at my office on Monday, you'll find a package of excellent medicine for rheumatism."
