Excerpt from The Sport of Chance, Vol. 2 of 3
Mona's child gave a faint cry, and even as she hushed it to sleep again she felt something press against her. She shuddered, not know ing what it was; sight being impossible, she could only learn by the ear that it was a human being, for the dreadful cough burst through the fog close beside her, and by the touch that it was a woman, for she felt thin ragged clothes hanging in damp folds round a shivering body.
Are you Mary Stevens?' gurgled out a hoarse voice in a weak, gin-laden breath.
