- Operator, operator, will you get me Dr. Malcolm Wells' office, please. I don't know his number. And I have no phone book up here. But this is an emergency. Will you connect me with his office, please?
- Oh dear, oh dear, I'm going to get the rabies.
- Hello?
- Hello? Dr. Well's office?
- This is a call service. Dr. Wells is out at moment. But if you give me your name and number, I'll try to locate him.
- Well, this is Miss Van Gorder of the Oaks.
- My maid has just been bitten by a bat that may be rapid. And she must have treatment as soon as possible. And I was told that Dr. Wells was the nearest physician.
- I'll try to find him for you. And if I can't, I'll send you another doctor.
- Well, thank you very much.
- Oh, he's out on a case. I hope it's not a delivery... a baby, I mean. They can be terribly complicated.
- It never bothered me none.
- Oh, Lizzie, you never had a baby.
- Of course I didn't. That's why they never bothered me.
- Oh, does it hurt, huh?
- A little.
- Dr. Wells? Are you there, Dr. Wells? Are you there, Dr. Wells? This is the operator. Your call service is on the wire. It's an emergency.
