Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sister of a Certain Soldier It really began on one of the hot rainy afternoons of June, 1916. I don´t mean that my acquaintance with the young woman began then. Not at all. She and other members of her family had been occasional patients of mine for several years. But it was on that June afternoon that an innocent question of mine precipitated the strange happenings here narrated. I have had some professional diffidence about telling the things revealed to me by this patient. My Psyche and I have just had a violent dispute on that very point. My Psyche´s argument was that the patient would be glad to have the story told, and that for the sake of the public the story ought to be told. Therefore I am going to tell it even at the risk of receiving the condemnation of the captious. The patient was the rather tall, graceful, soft-spoken, modestly dressed daughter of a prosperous farmer named Morphy in the adjacent town of Stornham. When she was a pay-pupil in the New Haven High School, eight or nine years ago, I had treated her for a slight attack of tonsillitis. After that I followed with some interest her various school successes in scholarship, in singing and on the basket-ball team. She was the class poet.
