"It does indeed sound like something from a story. I am a lucky man." He turns to Dr. Schiff. "Thank you for coming to my aid, sir. But I am unharmed other than a sore chest." He rubs the place over his heart. He then turns to look at Angus and the young man who shot him. "Inspector McQuinn, I know this young man. His name is Jonathan Willows and he was recently a student of mine at the university. But lately he has become agitated and overly nervous, most likely due to the disappearance of his older sister. For some reason he has fixed the idea in his mind that I have something to do with it. He as made threats against my life more than once. While I don't think he has any true criminal intent, I do believe he as become mental unhinged and requires professional help." Galvan looks around the room. "I don't wish to bring any stain on the reputation of this fine establishment. As I am unharmed, I hope that no charges will be placed against this young man. But, I do insist that he be place in the care of a doctor or sanitarium. For his own safety of coarse."Angus who is holding the young man's arm feels him slump. All resistance seems to drain from the young man. The young man's face changes from agitated apprehension to blank resignation.At this point, Dr. Marley and two policemen enter the room.</blockquote>
