He brought me round to his club, bought me a meal and a peg of brandy, gave me a suit of drill and a hand-shake that nearly cracked my knuckles."Don't tell it too often when you get back to our country," he said."Why?" I asked.Curtis laughed grimly and looked about him. "Well, they wouldn't get the atmosphere," he said, "and atmosphere is everything when it comes to believing a story.
