She rushed across the room and
wrenched open the door. At the foot
Of the stairway just before her was
the body of a man. limp and notion

IT'S a man. He's hurt" she called
back 20 the sick woman as she knelt

He had fallen so that she could not
get good look at him in the dark
hallway, and she rolled him toward
the door to get him on his back and
see his face. AS she gazed upon his
countenance the fingers of death itself
seemed to seize her by the throat. Her
heart gave one great leap and then
stood still. On the floor before her
lay the body of the man she loved.
Joel" she screamed. What are you
doing here? Joe, Joe, speak to mel"
But there was no answer. His eyes
we're closed. and the pallor of death
seemed to be upon his face.
With strength beyond what she had
ever known herself to possess, Gloria
seized the motionless form and dragged
and rolled the man into Little Ella 5
room Before she turned TO him again
she closed and bolted the door. Then
she bent over him and begged him to
speak TO her, to open his eyes and
know chat she was with him.
Joe, don't you know me?" she
pleaded Then to Little Ella. He's
dead. he's dead. See. he doesn' t

There was only one thing TO do: get
a physician
As she started to her feet she heard
two men running down the stairs and
making search from room to room
on her floor. These must be the men
who had attacked him. She could not
let him fall into their hands, and there
fore she could not leave him to go fer
aid. The impotence OF her position
made her feel like screaming to relieve
the nervous strain.
