Was it a bright, sunshiny day?

Sure. Four days ago. He was heading about sou'west, and going slow.

Anything happen to your eyesight?
gpt
Say--yes. One of my men's gone stone blind. Thinks he must have looked squarely at the sun when he thought he was looking at the fire up aloft.

It wasn't the sun. Keep him in utter darkness for a week at least. He'll get well. What was your position when you met that fellow?
gpt
About six hundred miles due nor'west from here.

All right. Look out for Japanese craft. War is declared.
