The context:
‘I always ask leave, in the interests of science, to measure the crania of those going out there,’ he said.
‘And when they come back, too?’ I asked.
‘Oh, I never see them,’ he remarked; ‘and, moreover, the changes take place inside, you know.’
What does he mean? What is the ‘change’? Perhaps people going out there become more evil or rotten inside because they take part in the slave trade? But it sounds too simple. What do you think?
