When　I　was　awake　after　the　operation　I　had　not　been　away。　You　do　not　go　away。　They　only　choke　you。　It　is　not　like　dying　it　is　just　a　chemical　choking　so　you　do　not　feel；　and　afterward　you　might　as　well　have　been　drunk　except　that　when　you　throw　up　nothing　es　but　bile　and　you　do　not　feel　better　afterward。　I　saw　sandbags　at　the　end　of　the　bed。　They　were　on　pipes　that　came　out　of　the　cast。　After　a　while　I　saw　Miss　Gage　and　she　said；　〃How　is　it　now？〃

〃Better；〃　I　said。

〃He　did　a　wonderful　job　on　your　knee。〃

〃How　long　did　it　take？〃

〃Two　hours　and　a　half。〃

〃Did　I　say　anything　silly？〃

〃Not　a　thing。　Dont　talk。　Just　be　quiet。〃

I　was　sick　and　Catherine　was　right。　It　did　not　make　any　difference　who　was　on　night　duty。

There　were　three　other　patients　in　the　hospital　now；　a　thin　boy　in　the　Red　Cross　from　Georgia　with　malaria；　a　nice　boy；　also　thin；　from　New　York；　with　malaria　and　jaundice；　and　a　fine　boy　who　had　tried　to　unscrew　the　fuse…cap　from　a　bination　shrapnel　and　high　explosive　shell　for　a　souvenir。　This　was　a　shrapnel　shell　used　by　the　Austrians　in　the　mountains　with　a　nose…cap　which　went　on　after　the　burst　and　exploded　on　contact。

Catherine　Barkley　was　greatly　liked　by　the　nurses　because　she　would　do　night　duty　indefinitely。　She　had　quite　a　little　work　with　the　malaria　people；　the　boy　who　had　unscrewed　the　nose…cap　was　a　friend　of　ours　and　never　rang　at　night；　unless　it　was　necessary　but　between　the　times　of　working　we　were　together。　I　loved　her　very　much　and　she　loved　me。　I　slept　in　the　daytime　and　we　wrote　notes　during　the　day　when　we　were　awake　and　sent　them　by　Ferguson。　Ferguson　was　a　fine　girl。　I　never　learned　anything　about　her　except　that　she　had　a　brother　in　the　Fifty…Second　Division　and　a　brother　in　Mesopotamia　and　she　was　very　good　to　Catherine　Barkley。

〃Will　you　e　to　our　wedding；　Fergy？〃　I　said　to　her　once。

〃Youll　never　get　married。〃

〃We　will。〃

〃No　you　wont。〃

〃Why　not？〃

〃Youll　fight　before　youll　marry。〃

〃We　never　fight。〃

〃Youve　time　yet。〃

〃We　dont　fight。〃

〃Youll　die　then。　Fight　or　die。　Thats　what　people　do。　They　dont　marry。〃

I　reached　for　her　hand。　〃Dont　take　hold　of　me；〃　she　said。　〃Im　not　crying。　Maybe　youll　be　all　right　you　two。　But　watch　out　you　dont　get　her　in　trouble。　You　get　her　in　trouble　and　Ill　kill　you。〃
