“And now, sir
(а теперь, сэр),” continued the doctor (продолжил доктор), “since I now know there’s such a fellow in my district (так как я теперь знаю, /что/ подобный парень находится в моем округе), you may count I’ll have an eye upon you day and night (можете рассчитать, /что/ я прослежу за вами: «буду иметь глаз на вас» днем и ночью). I’m not a doctor only (я не доктор только); I’m a magistrate (я /еще и/ судья); and if I catch a breath of complaint against you (если уловлю вздох недовольства = если до меня дойдет малейшая жалоба на вас) if its only for a piece of incivility like to-night’s (даже если /она будет/ связана с вашей грубостью: «кусочком невежливости», как сегодня вечером;Soon after Dr Livesey’s horse came to the door
(вскоре лошадь доктора Ливси прибыла к двери = подали лошадь), and he rode away (и он ускакал;knuckled [`nʌkld] weapon [`wepən] breath [breθ] incivility [,ɪnsɪ`vɪlɪtɪ] suffice [sə`faɪs]
Then followed a battle of looks between them; but this captain soon knuckled under, put up his weapon, and resumed his seat, grumbling like a beaten dog.
“And now, sir,” continued the doctor, “since I now know there’s such a fellow in my district, you may count I’ll have an eye upon you day and night. I’m not a doctor only; I’m a magistrate; and if I catch a breath of complaint against you if its only for a piece of incivility like to-night’s, I’ll take effectual means to have you hunted down and routed out of this. Let that suffice.”
Soon after Dr Livesey’s horse came to the door, and he rode away; but the captain held his peace that evening, and for many evenings to come.

Black Dog Appears and Disappears (Черный Пес появляется и исчезает)
IT was not very long after this
(это было не очень долго после этого = вскоре) that there occurred the first of the mysterious events (когда произошло первое из тех таинственных событий) that rid us at last of the captain (которое избавило нас, наконец, от капитана), though not, as you will see, of his affairs (хотя не, как вы увидите, от его дел = оставленных им неприятностей).
