Old Dr. Carver still made house calls. One afternoon he was called to the Tuttle house. Mrs. Tuttle was in terrible pain. The doctor came out of the bedroom a minute after hed gone in and asked Mr. Tuttle, Do you have a hammer?
A puzzled Mr. Tuttle went to the garage, and returned with a hammer.
The doctor thanked him and went back into the bedroom. A moment later, he came out and asked, Do you have a chisel?
Mr. Tuttle complied with the request.
In the next ten minutes, Dr. Carver asked for and received a pair of pliers a screwdriver and a hacksaw. The last request got to Mr. Tuttle. He asked, What are you doing to my wife?
Not a thing, replied old doc Carver. I cant get my instrument bag open.
