Opis: The Grey World (Classic Reprint) - Underhill Evelyn

Excerpt from The Grey World

A Children's hospital is not a bad place to die in: failing forest or hilltop, perhaps, one may not easily find a better. It is clean and airy, and there are few opportunities for the hysterical confusion of leave-taking which gives a touch of horror and bewilderment to the greater dignities of a private decease. The Author of the Human Comedy, one fancies, did not pay much attention to our exits and our entrances. They seldom strike the imagination; yet, from the spectators point of view, they are not the least strange or important details of the play.

On October the 15th in the year 1878, a small boy lay in the Princess Ward of S. Nicholas' Infirmary, dying of typhoid fever.
