Walker started, looked at her eyes, and asked hesitatingly whether he could help. Mrs. Hatteras replied with an ill-assumed surprise that she did not understand. Walker suggested that there was trouble. Mrs. Hatteras denied the truth of the suggestion. Walker pressed the point and Mrs. Hatteras yielded so far as to assert that there was no trouble in which Hatteras was concerned. Walker hardly thought it the occasion for a parade of manners, and insisted on pointing out that his knowledge of her husband was intimate and dated from his schooldays. Thereupon Mrs. Hatteras gave way.
"Dick goes away alone," she said. "He stains his skin and goes away at night. He tells me that he must,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that it's the only way by which he can know the natives,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and that so it's a sort of duty. He says the black tells nothing of himself to the white man--ever. You must go amongst them if you are to know them. So he goes, and I never know when he will come back. I never know whether he will come back."
"But he has done that sort of thing on and off for years, and he has always come back," replied Walker.
"Yes, but one day he will not." Walker comforted her as well as he could, praised Hatteras for his conduct,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], though his heart was hot against him,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], spoke of risks that every one must run who serve the Empire. "Never a lotus closes, you know,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he said, and went back to the factory with the consciousness that he had been telling lies.
