real cause of my illness, and | would
make myself sure that none ever did.
When my sister left the room burned
the Notwithstanding letters. without anOth-

and last love. The little gifts that had
once priced, put safely away in a secret
drawer. l could not return them to the

that our neighbors were really intelligent

source Of enjoyment.
One morning when the June roses were
in bloom and the bees were gathering
their wealth of sweets alike from roses
