Those were hectic DAYS that
followed. Minnie was willing and
capable enough in many ways
but the work of managing .
household was new to Donna and
with helpless invalid to care
for, she found herself SO over,
worked and harrassed that by
nightfall she was too tired even
to talk. She had no time to
speculate on the results of hel
quarrel with Mrs. Planter.
The older. woman, without com

son for it, and had departed. Ap,
parently she had passed out OF

day DR.. Freeman came out to see

portion of the burdens from
Donna's slender shoulders.

reared its ugly fangs again. At
night, though her back and legs
ached from long hours spent in
the kitchen and in the dairy,
from rudging to hen houses and
back and digging in the truck
gardens, she would lie beside Bill,
her eyes too heavy to keep open,
but her mind too active for sleep.
