When, upon the resumption of a food diet, the vomiting did not cease, the family was alarmed. The family physician was sent for in dismay. But he could do nothing. Flesh-building foods were prescribed, but they accomplished nothing. The vomiting continued, and three weeks following the breaking of the fast Mrs. Meyer died. "The death was put down to a depleted blood-supply, or heart-failure.
She struck me, then, as distinctly an urban product, as one of those lazy and silk-lined and limousiny sort of women who could face an upholstery endurance-test without any apparent signs of heart-failure, but might be apt to fall down on engine-performance.
It was Louisa Mebbin who drew attention to the fact that the goat was in death-throes from a mortal bullet-wound, while no trace of the rifle's deadly work could be found on the tiger. Evidently the wrong animal had been hit, and the beast of prey had succumbed to heart-failure, caused by the sudden report of the rifle, accelerated by senile decay. Mrs.
As it struck the street and bounced up higher than the roofs they could be seen scuttling like rats, and maybe, to-day, that airman is haunted by the ghosts of those who died of heart-failure as a result of his fiendishness. This airman is a well-known character among the troops in Flanders, known to all as "the mad major."
Later on, my body is found. There are no marks of violence, and probably the needle-puncture escapes observation at the post-mortem, in which case the verdict will be death from heart-failure. Even if the poison and the puncture are discovered, there is no clue.
He must have been dead half an hour, said the doctor. It was evidently heart-failure. Before the doctor had pronounced his verdict there was a whisper in the Stock Exchange. "Henderson is dead!" "It is not possible," said one. "I saw him only yesterday," said another. "I was in his office this morning," said a third. "I never saw him looking in better health." The whisper was confirmed.
As he spoke his wife shrank tenderly near him, and March saw her steal her withered hand into his. "We'd had a large family, but they'd all died off, with one thing or another, and here in the spring we lost our last daughter. Seemed perfectly well, and all at once she died; heart-failure, they called it. It broke me up, and mother, here, got at me to go. And so we're here."
It nearly gave me heart-failure; and on top of that I almost got brain fever inventing lies to tell Aunt Isabel. And then I had to cram myself into these confounded evening clothes of yours." I gave a sharp wail of agony. It hadn't struck me till then that Rocky was depending on my wardrobe to see him through. "You'll ruin them!" "I hope so," said Rocky, in the most unpleasant way.
There seemed to be but one logical answer to the last, and it was this: A struggle followed by death. She may have died from heart-failure, but a struggle had preceded her death, during which some man's strong fingers had been locked about her wrists. And again the question rose, Whose? "If any place was ever hated by mortal man that grotto was hated by me.
She had weighed one hundred and fifty pounds. Her weight had fallen to one hundred. "The family physician prescribed light food, but her stomach repulsed it. She grew very weak. "On April 26 she died. Dr. Chestnut unhesitatingly issued a death certificate, ascribing her death to heart-failure. He also suspected a cancer of the stomach, but was not sure. "Mrs.
