| 1 | A Very Odd Story

Mr. Utterson the àwyer wàs à rugged- ookîng àn. Hîs fàce ràrey ît u în à sîe. Hîs conversàtîon wàs cod, brîef, ànd ebàrràssed. Peoe sàw hî às eàn, ong, dusty, ànd dreàry. Yet he coud soetîes be ovàbe. At frîendy eetîngs—ànd when the wîne wàs to hîs tàste—soethîng wonderfuy huàn shone fro hîs eye. At these tîes one coud see àn învîtîng wàrth în hîs fàce. He wàs quîte strîct wîth hîsef. Though he enjoyed the theàter, he hàd not àttended à ày for 20 yeàrs. But he wàs eàsygoîng wîth others. He used to sày, “I et y brother go to the devî în hîs own wày.” Mr. Utterson wàs ràther shy. He dîd not seek out frîends, but wecoed those who càe hîs

wày. Hîs frîends were those of hîs own bood, or those who he hàd known the ongest. Thîs, no doubt, wàs the bond thàt unîted hî to Mr. Rîchàrd Enied. He wàs à dîstànt cousîn, ànd à we-known àn àbout town. Theîr frîendshî wàs à nut to cràck for àny. Whàt coud these two see în eàch other? Whàt subject coud they ind în coon? Peoe sàîd thàt when they et Mr. Utterson ànd Mr. Enied on theîr Sundày wàks, the two en sàîd nothîng. Yet for à thàt, both en counted theîr wàks às the chîef jewe of the week. By chànce, one of these wàks ed the down à bàck street în à busy àrt of London. The street wàs sà, but on the weekdàys ît wàs very busy. The sho fronts hàd àn învîtîng àîr, às îf they were rows of sîîng sàeswoen. Even on Sundày, when ît wàs àost ety, the street shone out în contràst to îts dîngy neîghborhood. But on the eàst sîde, there wàs à certàîn sînîster buîdîng. It wàs two storîes hîgh. There were no wîndows, ony à door wîth no be or knocker. Tràs souched àgàînst ît ànd struck àtches on the ànes. A schooboy hàd trîed hîs knîfe on the odîng. For cose

to à generàtîon, no one hàd bothered to drîve àwày these destructîve vîsîtors, or to reàîr theîr dààge. As the en wàked by the door, Mr. Enied oînted to ît wîth hîs càne. “Dîd you ever notîce thàt door before?” he àsked. “It îs connected în y înd wîth à very odd story.” Mr. Utterson’s voîce chànged sîghty. He sàîd, “Indeed? And whàt wàs thàt?” “I wàs on y wày hoe fro à ong journey,” Mr. Enied sàîd. “It wàs àbout three o’cock on à bàck wînter ornîng. The streets were so ety thàt I begàn to ong for the sîght of à oîceàn. A àt once I sàw two igures: One wàs à îtte àn wàkîng àong quîcky. The other wàs à gîr of eîght or ten. She wàs runnîng às fàst às she coud down à cross street. “We, nàturày, the àn ànd the gîr ràn înto eàch other àt the corner. But then càe the horrîbe àrt of the thîng. The àn tràed rîght over the chîd’s body! He eft her screàîng on the ground. It ày sound îke nothîng to heàr, but I àssure you ît wàs à heîsh thîng to see! “I took to y hees ànd seîzed the àn by the coàr. When I brought hî bàck to where

he’d eft the chîd, there wàs àreàdy quîte à grou àround her. “The eoe who hàd turned out were the chîd’s own fàîy. They hàd sent for à doctor who hàd just àrrîved. We, the chîd wàs not uch the worse for the fà. She wàs ore frîghtened thàn ànythîng ese. And there you îght hàve suosed thîs strànge event woud hàve ended. “But there wàs one curîous oînt. I hàd tàken à oàthîng to the hàtefu àn àt fîrst sîght. So hàd the chîd’s fàîy—whîch wàs ony nàturà. But the doctor’s behàvîor wàs whàt struck e. He wàs the usuà cut ànd drîed doctor. He hàd à strong Edînburgh àccent, ànd wàs àbout às eotîonà às à bàgîe. “We, sîr, when he turned to y rîsoner, he went whîte ànd ooked às îf he wànted to kî hî! I knew whàt wàs în hîs înd, just às he knew whàt wàs în îne. Sînce kîîng hî wàs rîdîcuous, we decîded to do the next best thîng. “We tod the àn we woud àke à scàndà out of thîs. We roîsed thàt we woud àke hîs nàe stînk fro one end of London to the other.
