this little purse with my own hands, as a sign of my gratitude. i hope you will accept it. the doctor stood up and said coldly, madam, a little present like that is very nice between friends, but a doctor needs to be paid properly for what he has done. the lady was so surprised and hurt so much that she could not reply for a moment. then she said quietly, perhaps you will tell me how much your fee is?fifty pounds, he answered.the lady opened the little purse and took out four fifty-pound bank notes. she handed one of them to the doctor, and put the other three back into the purse. she put
