Excerpt: ...at midnight; but I believe that I could do without one of them. I never was much of an eater-and I need very little sleep. Somehow, although I am out at sunrise most mornings, I rarely sleep till two or thereabouts. Four hours are enough for me-and in the summer much less. Sometimes, when the fit is on me, I roam all night long, and come back and do my routine-and then sleep where I am, or may be. Precisians would grow mad at such a life-and yet I'm awfully healthy." The stranger watched him. "You live here, then-and so?" "I have lived here," said Senhouse, "for three years or more; but I've lived so for over twenty.

The stranger lent this reasoning his gloomy meditation, which turned it inwards to himself and his rueful history. "I don't follow you, I believe," he said, "for very good reason. I hope you will never learn as I have that it does matter where you are." He stopped, then added, as if the admission was wrung out of him, "I've been in prison." "So have I," said Senhouse, "and in Siberia at that. I was there for more than a year, though not all that time within walls. They let me loose when they found that I could be trusted, and I learned botany, and caught a marsh fever which nearly finished me. They wouldn't have me in after that, being quite content that I should rot in the open. I was succoured by a woman, one of those noble creatures who are made to give themselves. She gave me what blood she had left. God bless her: she blessed me." "It was a woman," said the stranger, "that sent me to prison." Senhouse, after looking him over, calmly replied, ...
