Ralph's face showed that he clearly
understood the Importance OF the com

to obey exactly, and then glided noise

turned to Florence, who seemed some

Ralph was busted with some. medi-

Taking her hand, he led her to the
window, where Florence. in hurried,

finished her story did he ask few
brief, direct questions.

He again approached the sick bed,

he silently beckoned to the daughter
