"Be patient for a few days, and I will hurry up things as fast as practicable. You say she is a little better?" "Mrs. Albright thinks so. She is over her scare a little. Dr. Gunnip frightened her half to death! He won't let her try to get up. Don't you hate Dr. Gunnip?" Mr. Randolph smiled. "I don't know him personally," he replied. "I never thought I should want him for a physician."
I think I wrote you about Miss Twining and her "resurrection." That night when Dr. Temple contradicted so emphatically what Dr. Gunnip had told her she says she felt as if she had been dead and buried all those dreadful weeks and had come back to life. Miss Crilly insists that if it hadn't been for Miss Twining's "martyrdom" we never should have had "spunk" enough to go to Mr.
"Little he knows about it!" scorned Polly. "Well, he said it right up and down!" put in Miss Crilly. "It is too bad!" Polly drew a long, sighing breath. "I don't believe she'd have had any heart trouble at all, if Miss Sniffen hadn't made this fuss!" "The excitement has no doubt aggravated it," commented Mrs. Albright. "Is that all Dr. Gunnip said, that she had heart disease?" queried Polly.
But I could see that he had upset her completely. I don't think, from what she did say, that he gave her any particulars. He said she had got to be extremely careful. She feels as if it was about over with her." "I wish father could see her," fretted Polly. "He wouldn't frighten her so, even if he did have to tell her that her heart was in bad shape! I hate Dr. Gunnip worse than ever!
Randolph; but they won't let me, for fear he'll take the Home's part, or something, and get them into trouble. I don't know what to do!" The car stopped at the Gresham door, and Polly forgot disagreeable things in the pleasure of Mrs. Collins's cordial welcome. Miss Twining was worse. Dr. Gunnip had been called late in the afternoon.
Gunnip He's no good! Father says he's little more than a quack and he isn't safe. I wish father could see her; but he can't unless he is called. It is too bad! I believe I'll go straight to Mr. Randolph!" "I don't dare have you," returned Mrs. Albright. "He would, of course, favor the Home, and if Miss Sniffen should hear of it " "Before I say anything I shall make him promise not to tell."
