(177 words) Retired Major General Buldeev, exhausted by toothache, tried all the known methods of treatment. The doctor, realizing that the hina did not help, suggested tearing the tooth, to which Buldeev gave a decisive refusal. The clerk Ivan Evseich advises him to be treated by conspiracy with the former excise official Yakov Vasilievich, who served here for ten years after leaving his job in Saratov, where he successfully continues the practice of baking teeth even at a distance via telegrams. Toothache haunts, and despite the fact that Buldeev calls the proposed method “quackery”, his wife persuades him to try. The clerk begins to write a dispatch, but forgets the surname of the excise, which, as he says “horse”, and the entire department begins to invent the surname: “Foals”, “Kobylitsyn”, “Horses”, but Evseich rejects everything. Exhausted by the pain, Buldeev promises to give five rubles to what he will call his real name. Until the evening, the surname was never found. Tormented all night with a tooth, in the morning the Major General does not stand up and orders to tear the tooth. The doctor arrives, the pain subsides, leaving, he encounters the clerk and asks him to buy five quarters of oats, complaining about the prices from the peasants. Ivan Ivseich runs to the estate, remembering his last name - Ovsov. Major General reports that he no longer needs her.
