Young Mrs. Fielding opened her dark, heavy-lidded eyes and gazed thoughtfully about the large, luxurious chamber, from which every ray of sunshine had been carefully excluded. As her eyes became accustomed to the subdued light she saw a fat old negro woman, in a white cap and apron, dozing placidly in a large rocking-chair.
Nurse! nurse! she cried.
Hi, honey! and the sleeper wakened with a start, and waddled up to the bed, with a broad smile on her dark visage.
Have I been asleep, nurse? I feel so strange! I seem to remember that I was sick, and the doctor was here—
Her faltering words were interrupted by a low chuckle of satisfaction from the old woman.
Guess de doctor was here! Guess he put you to sleep, too; 'case how, he said, no use you suff'rin' sech cruel pains. Hi, honey! what you reckin? Your trouble all pas' now, and you de happy mudder o' two de beautifules' twins dat I eber sot my ole eyes on!
