One night about nine
o’clock, Dr. Eyck, a surgeon, had a phone call from Dr. Haydon at the hospital
in Clens Falls. The surgeon was asked to go there at once to operate on a very
sick boy who shot himself while playing with a gun.
The doctor was soon on
his way to Clens Falls. It was 60 miles away. And it was snowing heavily in the
city. The surgeon thought he could get there before 12 o’clock.
A few minutes later,
the doctor was stopped by a man in an old black coat. Gun in hand, the man
ordered the doctor to get out. Then the man drove the car down the road,
leaving the doctor in the falling snow.
It was after 2 o’clock
in the morning when the doctor arrived at the hospital in Clens Falls. Dr.
Haydon told him that the boy had died an hour before.
The two doctors walked
by the door of the hospital waiting room. There sat the man in the old black
coat with his head in his hands.
“Mr. Cuninghan,” said
Dr. Haydon to the man, “This is Dr. Eyck. He is the surgeon who walked all the
way from Albany to save your boy.”
