True, there was a temporary rally during the excitement consequent upon changing her residence, going among new scenes, making new acquaintances, &c. ; but, this over, there came the reaction. It was so gradual, however, that Alice for a long time did not notice it ; and, when she did, she would fain believe that it was nothing serious, - nothing but what medicine and tender care would relieve ; but, when the doctor was spoken of... to the invalid, she utterly refused to see him.
