hard fight.
After Annette passed the danger
zone and was well on the way to con.

Helen had seen it coming for days.
Even his iron will and wonderful
constitution could not stand siege
like he had had He had been over
, worked before Annettes illness and
had not slept three hours a day while
she was in danger Helen knew all
he needed was rest to brain and body
and she saw that he got it. When he
was we'll enough to stand it, she read
to him. Her soothing voice worked
wonders. In very short time he was
able to sit up but was not anxious to
recover entirely.

Helen when she suggested that both
