Despite her utter help lessness as her strength waned, Peg gy frantically retained her hold on her, maids outstretched hand. <, On the bank of West Branch brook a man, racing to overtake them, increased his speed in one final spurt, his heart pounding against his ribs, his blood icy in his veins as he plunged ahead toward Peggy's cries.
