“You have. What do you call it? Did you not promise never to bother me again?”
“I have not bothered you. I came here to try and protect you.”
“You have. You gave me your word never to come near me again. What do you want?”
“I want to talk to you.”
“Well, talk quick. I have no time to waste on you. I am busy.”
“I know you are, and I shall not bother you long. I want you to stop prosecuting Dr. Cary and Mr. Gray and Captain Allen.”
“What do you know about them?” asked Leech, in unfeigned astonishment.
“They are friends of friends of mine. Dr. Cary saved my life not long ago.”
