“Why didn't you report sick, then? Can't you get on?”
“I don't think so, sir. Not for a while, at least.”
“Have you any pain, any nausea?”
“No, sir, I'm just all in.”
“Do you know our route?”
“Yes, sir, I've got the turns down.”
“Well, come along then when you can. I'll send back a waggon later, but don't wait for that.”
“Yes, sir,” said Corporal Thom.
“Come on, Dunbar! We'll send a waggon back for these stragglers. There will be a good many of them before long.”
“You go on, doc. I'll come later,” said Barry. “I'll catch up to you.”
