"Let us drink," he said, "to Coombe. 'Coombe and the Soul cure!" "Amen!" said Willits. "Land sakes!" said Mrs. Sykes. "I thought it was his spine!" Zerubbabel Burk sat upon his stool of office in the doctor's consulting room, swinging his legs.
Her death did not set me free, it bound me closer. "I seemed like one caught in the tow of some swift tide, always fighting to get back, yet eternally being drawn away. The tide still flows out, for the tide of human life is the only tide which never returns, but I have ceased to struggle. I no longer look back. "It amounts to this, then," said Willits presently.

The annual convention met in the public library in Newark and it was voted to petition Congress for a Federal Suffrage Amendment. Dr. DeHart was elected president and the other new officers were Mrs. Ella A. Kilborn and Miss Mary D. Campbell, secretaries. Miss Mary Willits and Mrs. Mary B. Kinsley were the only other officers who had been added in the past seven years.
