Ruth walked on, but she was startled. Finally she turned swiftly and went back to the door of Hut H. The nurse on duty had just come from the end of the ward.

A fine fellow this, you must know, Delaserre he paints tolerably, draws beautifully, converses well, and plays charmingly on the flute; and, though thus well entitled to be a coxcomb of talent, is, in fact, a modest unpretending young man.

I hate her to go to town; it is extraordinary how I miss her; I can't recall, when she is absent, her saying anything very wonderful, but she converses all the time. She has a gracious way of filling the place with herself, there is an entertaining quality in her very presence.
