The woman who was expected to

During the time these discussions
were in progress, from Saturday to
Sunday morning, none of the Presi-
dents party suspected his illness
would be complicated or become more
serious. 1t was generally believed
that the slight attack of ptomaine
poisoning would be overcome by a
day or two of rest In San Francisco
and the President would be recov-
cred sufficiently by Tuesday to go
through with the arrangements in
San Francisco that day and Wednes-
day and continue then to Los An
