"How extraordinary!" said John Dolittle, entirely bewildered. "What ails the man?"

"'I don't know,' says the little boy. 'Gosh, but I'm scared! Isn't the dark awful?'

"'What way is there?' I said. 'For me life is over!'

"Do any other animals live here?" asked the Doctor.

"Oh, to be sure��of course," cried the Doctor. "I knew I had seen you somewhere. I never forget faces. You had a pretty hard time coming to England in the winter, didn't you��snow on the ground and all that sort of thing. Very plucky of you to undertake it."

The Doctor had visions of his enormous friend moving through the slime of centuries at the bottom of the lake, hunting for some souvenir of the great civilization that passed away with the Flood. He hoped that he would bring a book or something with writing on it.
