Night came. and our charge retired
to bed in her ncw-fangled night
dress, with which she was amused.
The usual hour for the night walk
came. Her attendants were strictly
cnjoincd not to stir. She raised her
self up as usual in the sitting pos
ture, then stood upright and com
mcnccd to walk The second step
was trip, for the foot behind held
the bottom of the Lag in which she
stood She stumbled, fell forward,
and awoke, and was put back into
bed whore She soon fell asleep.
And now came a curious change in
the phases Of the atiliction. She
would still rise from bed each night,
but made no further attempt to walk
us before. She would stand erect,
and keeping the knees perfectly rigid,
spring straight upward from the floor,
and thus dance about the room. This
she would continue until thoroughly
fatigued, and then retired quietly to
bed to sleep. | am glad to add the
case ended in perfect cure - Pear
