The Medic's Story A medical tale of a haunted hour
Four medical students hear a rambling tale of a night in the city when a gate, a distressed girl, and a living danger collide. A physician intervenes to stop a suspected removal of an insane patient, a struggle ensues, and the revolver is overturned. The narrator learns Waterhouse’s tale may hinge on a trick of perception or a real incident linked to a pistol. The story ends with Waterhouse’s wedding cards and the strange garden gate meeting.
