Howson put her into the foremost car, and they were soon off, threading their way through the busy streets of the base, while the Sister followed with Cicely. 'Oh, it was cruel not to let Mrs. Sarratt know earlier! said the Sister indignantly, in answer to a hurried question from Cicely as soon as they were alone. 'She might have had three weeks with him, and now there can only be a day or two.
He could see the colour fluctuating in her delicate face. 'You're going to X ? You you might see Dr. Howson? 'Howson? he said, surprised. 'Do you know him? Yes, I shall certainly see Howson. He's now the principal surgeon at one of the General Hospitals there, where I specially want to look at some new splints they've been trying. Nelly moved on without speaking for a little.
'Who is that with your sister? asked Cicely. 'It is a man we knew in Manchester, Doctor Howson. 'Did you expect him? 'Oh no. After a minute she added 'He was at our wedding. I haven't seen him since.
