The Outspan by Sir Percy Fitzpatrick

“There is no art in the Telling that can equal the consummate art of the Happening!” It was a remark dropped by a forgotten someone in a prospector’s hut one night, years and years ago, when we had exhausted snakes and hunting, lucky strikes and escapes, and had got away into coincidences. One of the party had been telling us an experience of his. He was introduced on the day he arrived to a man well known on the fields. It seemed quite impossible that they could have met before, for they compared dates and places for ten years back, and yet both were puzzled by the hazy suggestion of having seen the other before, and, in our friend’s case, of something more definite. His remark to the other was: “I can’t help feeling that I saw you once in a devil of a fright somewhere—or dreamt it, I suppose!”
