The
whole
harmony
of
her
being
seemed
complete
.
Carriage
,
figure
,
hair
,
eyes
;
the
mobile
,
full
mouth
,
whose
scarlet
lips
and
white
teeth
seemed
to
light
up
the
lower
part
of
the
face
--
as
the
eyes
did
the
upper
;
the
wide
sweep
of
the
jaw
from
chin
to
ear
;
the
long
,
fine
fingers
;
the
hand
which
seemed
to
move
from
the
wrist
as
though
it
had
a
sentience
of
its
own
.
All
these
perfections
went
to
make
up
a
personality
that
dominated
either
by
its
grace
,
its
sweetness
,
its
beauty
,
or
its
charm
.
162
Nurse
Kennedy
,
on
the
other
hand
,
was
rather
under
than
over
a
woman
's
average
height
.
She
was
firm
and
thickset
,
with
full
limbs
and
broad
,
strong
,
capable
hands
.
Her
colour
was
in
the
general
effect
that
of
an
autumn
leaf
.
The
yellow-brown
hair
was
thick
and
long
,
and
the
golden-brown
eyes
sparkled
from
the
freckled
,
sunburnt
skin
.
Her
rosy
cheeks
gave
a
general
idea
of
rich
brown
.
The
red
lips
and
white
teeth
did
not
alter
the
colour
scheme
,
but
only
emphasized
it
.
She
had
a
snub
nose
--
there
was
no
possible
doubt
about
it
;
but
like
such
noses
in
general
it
showed
a
nature
generous
,
untiring
,
and
full
of
good-nature
.
Her
broad
white
forehead
,
which
even
the
freckles
had
spared
,
was
full
of
forceful
thought
and
reason
.
163
Doctor
Winchester
had
on
their
journey
from
the
hospital
,
coached
her
in
the
necessary
particulars
,
and
without
a
word
she
took
charge
of
the
patient
and
set
to
work
.

Having
examined
the
new-made
bed
and
shaken
the
pillows
,
she
spoke
to
the
Doctor
,
who
gave
instructions
;
presently
we
all
four
,
stepping
together
,
lifted
the
unconscious
man
from
the
sofa
.
165
Early
in
the
afternoon
,
when
Sergeant
Daw
had
returned
,
I
called
at
my
rooms
in
Jermyn
Street
,
and
sent
out
such
clothes
,
books
and
papers
as
I
should
be
likely
to
want
within
a
few
days
.
Then
I
went
on
to
keep
my
legal
engagements
.
166
The
Court
sat
late
that
day
as
an
important
case
was
ending
;
it
was
striking
six
as
I
drove
in
at
the
gate
of
the
Kensington
Palace
Road
.
I
found
myself
installed
in
a
large
room
close
to
the
sick
chamber
.
167
That
night
we
were
not
yet
regularly
organised
for
watching
,
so
that
the
early
part
of
the
evening
showed
an
unevenly
balanced
guard
.
Nurse
Kennedy
,
who
had
been
on
duty
all
day
,
was
lying
down
,
as
she
had
arranged
to
come
on
again
by
twelve
o'clock
.
Doctor
Winchester
,
who
was
dining
in
the
house
,
remained
in
the
room
until
dinner
was
announced
;
and
went
back
at
once
when
it
was
over
.
During
dinner
Mrs.
Grant
remained
in
the
room
,
and
with
her
Sergeant
Daw
,
who
wished
to
complete
a
minute
examination
which
he
had
undertaken
of
everything
in
the
room
and
near
it
.
At
nine
o'clock
Miss
Trelawny
and
I
went
in
to
relieve
the
Doctor
.
She
had
lain
down
for
a
few
hours
in
the
afternoon
so
as
to
be
refreshed
for
her
work
at
night
.
She
told
me
that
she
had
determined
that
for
this
night
at
least
she
would
sit
up
and
watch
.
I
did
not
try
to
dissuade
her
,
for
I
knew
that
her
mind
was
made
up
.

Then
and
there
I
made
up
my
mind
that
I
would
watch
with
her
--
unless
,
of
course
,
I
should
see
that
she
really
did
not
wish
it
.
I
said
nothing
of
my
intentions
for
the
present
.
We
came
in
on
tiptoe
,
so
silently
that
the
Doctor
,
who
was
bending
over
the
bed
,
did
not
hear
us
,
and
seemed
a
little
startled
when
suddenly
looking
up
he
saw
our
eyes
upon
him
.
I
felt
that
the
mystery
of
the
whole
thing
was
getting
on
his
nerves
,
as
it
had
already
got
on
the
nerves
of
some
others
of
us
.
He
was
,
I
fancied
,
a
little
annoyed
with
himself
for
having
been
so
startled
,
and
at
once
began
to
talk
in
a
hurried
manner
as
though
to
get
over
our
idea
of
his
embarrassment
:
169
"
I
am
really
and
absolutely
at
my
wits
'
end
to
find
any
fit
cause
for
this
stupor
.
I
have
made
again
as
accurate
an
examination
as
I
know
how
,
and
I
am
satisfied
that
there
is
no
injury
to
the
brain
,
that
is
,
no
external
injury
.
Indeed
,
all
his
vital
organs
seem
unimpaired
.
I
have
given
him
,
as
you
know
,
food
several
times
and
it
has
manifestly
done
him
good
.
His
breathing
is
strong
and
regular
,
and
his
pulse
is
slower
and
stronger
than
it
was
this
morning
.
I
can
not
find
evidence
of
any
known
drug
,
and
his
unconsciousness
does
not
resemble
any
of
the
many
cases
of
hypnotic
sleep
which
I
saw
in
the
Charcot
Hospital
in
Paris
.
And
as
to
these
wounds
"
--
he
laid
his
finger
gently
on
the
bandaged
wrist
which
lay
outside
the
coverlet
as
he
spoke
,
"
I
do
not
know
what
to
make
of
them
.
They
might
have
been
made
by
a
carding-machine
;
but
that
supposition
is
untenable
.
170
It
is
within
the
bounds
of
possibility
that
they
might
have
been
made
by
a
wild
animal
if
it
had
taken
care
to
sharpen
its
claws
.
That
too
is
,
I
take
it
,
impossible
.
By
the
way
,
have
you
any
strange
pets
here
in
the
house
;
anything
of
an
exceptional
kind
,
such
as
a
tiger-cat
or
anything
out
of
the
common
?
"
Miss
Trelawny
smiled
a
sad
smile
which
made
my
heart
ache
,
as
she
made
answer
:
