husband said, in an admiring tone:
"You are one of the loveliest women

A caller raped upon the door of our
tiny studio, up three flights, on lower Fifth

band was concerned, remained unfinished.
He never completed it. But it seemed a

Mr.. Stringer did not
forbid my being on the
stage. l emerged from
my encouragement and
seclusion now and then
and played for a few
weeks or months, only
long enough to get some
new clothes. Then I re-
sumed my place at the
hearthstone, reading my
husbands manuscripts
and timidly telling him
what l thought of them.
He never sent a story to
a publisher without my
