Minna came in, wearing a cook's apron, and asked if her mother had rung for her yet.

Under the widow's instructions, she was preparing the peculiar vegetable diet which had been prescribed by Doctor Fontaine as part of the cure.

The good girl was eager to make herself useful to us in any domestic capacity.

What a charming substitute for the crabbed old housekeeper who had just left us! So here were Madame Fontaine and Minna actually established as inmates under the same roof with Mr.Keller! What would Fritz think, when he knew of it?
What would Mr.Keller say when he recognized his nurse, and when he heard that she had saved his life?
"All's well that ends well" is a good proverb.
