radio in her room, but Mrs. Hodg-
don would not let him, the color
ed nurse said.
Mrs. HodgdOn drank only soup
and tea during the period of her
illness, Irene Perez said. This was
what she liked, and such was her
emotion on the occasions when ap-
preached and told that she should
eat other kinds of foods for more
