While I was working in the hosp. I heard from one of the nurses that a young girl had arrived to join her mother, with others from the Bowen Rd. Hosp., so careered up to the blocks.  Outside the Dutch Block a business-like person was directing unloading operations on the lorry - Mabel, wearing unfamiliar clothes: competent, capable, independent ((not like my little sister, 5 years younger than me))  She's fatter in the face, and brought messages ((including one for me from Arthur, written in January)).
