SPEC – A Quiet Pipe
“But we shall have horrors enough before the night is over; for goodness' sake let us have a quiet pipe and turn our minds for a few hours to something more cheerful.”
We sat comfortably in our sitting-room, watching the night. I advised against lighting a lamp, the better to see the signal when it came. The only illumination came from firelight and the occasional glow from our pipes.
I marveled at Watson’s quiet bravery. I understood the dangers ahead. He did not, yet sat ready to follow me all the same.
