Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Death-Doctor: Being the Remarkable Confessions of Archibald More D´escombe, M.D., Of Kensington, London, Selected Some year and a half ago, my friend and erstwhile neighbour, Dr. Archibald More d´Escombe, died suddenly, and shortly after his decease I received from his solicitors a sealed packet addressed to me in his handwriting, with instructions that it was not to be opened until after his death. Dr. More d´Escombe and I had been close friends for some years; first in the little Devon-shire town of Okehampton, until he migrated to London, where I found him several years later, when I myself set up in practice in Earl´s Court Road. As I first remember him, he was a smart, slight, good-looking man - dark and clean-shaven, with an easy and taking manner - a favourite with all, especially the female sex, a clever medical, but at the same time excellent at bridge and at most games and sports, both indoor and out. His wife was a pretty, well-meaning little woman, but entirely eclipsed by her smart, successful and fascinating husband. In Okehampton, Dr. More d´Escombe was certainly the most popular figure, while in Kensington he was extremely well known and enjoyed a very wide and lucrative practice.
