"Sir," said the lawyer, ’" here I have $ 500. Whether you cure my wife or whether you kill her I will give you all this."
The doctor was now sure of the payment and went into the house. When he reached the woman’s bedside, it was soon clear to him that he could do little. She was badly iii, and though he gave her some medicine to take, she soon died.
He told the lawyer he was very sorry, then asked for the money.
"Did you kill my wife.’?" asked the lawyer.
"Of course not," said the doctor.
"Well, did you cure my wife?" asked the lawyer.
"I’m afraid that was impossible," answered the doctor.
