ing on Shils instructions, had refused
to allow her to see the invalid. civ

had held out some hope of recovery

the invalid was too weak to hear the
truth, and directly Shil was strong
enough to listen to the verdict, he
was told that he would never be able
to see anything again.
He received the news as a. brave
man might receive a sentence OF
DEATH and then he dictated letter 10
