Excerpt from Hope's Messenger HE scene of this series is laid in New York City, T on the upper West side near Riverside Drive. In the Opening chapter the little heroine, then not four years of age, has met with a terrible accident while crossing the Drive with her nurse. An auto mobile has run over her, in¿icting, what ultimately proves to be a seemingly incurable injury. Her par ents and all who know her are nearly heart-broken, for the child, who is beloved by all the neighborhood, possesses the sunniest soul ever housed in a faultless little body. Medical skill is sought throughout the world during that year of torture, but without avail. The child is unable to either sit up or take a step. An interval of six years elapses before we see her again, during each, strenuous efforts having been made to restore the little girl to health and strength. In the second chapter we find her at ten years of age still helpless, but living a wonderful life in her beautiful home where everything which love can suggest, or great wealth procure, is brought to her bed - side.
