reach her, There were mostly men
around the unconscious woman, whom
they lifted up. The covered basket had
upset, and out of it spilled a screaming
baby. Elln picked up the child.
She made them take the gypsy wom-
an to her house. There she lay for n
fortnight until she was able to crawl
forth again. In that time ElIin and
Helene, the baby. had become great
friends. So II was only natural that
the ~ psy woman should leave Helene
with her new friends when she went to
sell baskets.
