`` Yes woman '' cried Cyril hotly `` she is his daughter , now go for pity 's sake '' Mrs. Pollard hastily withdrew and commanded Dr. Poppet to follow her . `` Its a serious case sir '' she said cheerily opening Helen 's door `` step this way please . '' Dr. Poppet stepped that way and went over to Helens bed , where Mary the under servant was putting ointment on the wound . `` Hem '' grunted the doctor seriously `` not as bad as I feared , but very dangerous for all that , she must be kept very quiet Mrs. Pollard and must only take liquid food , she will probably awake by 5 or 6 o'clock and you may give her a little milk , `` I 'll call again tomorrow on my rounds , keep her head cool or fever of some kind may set in and effect the brain . '' `` Your instructions shall be carried out to the letter '' said Mrs. Pollard and with that she led him down to talk with Cyril Sheene . The next morning Helen was sadly feverish , though quite sensible . From the time she woke up 11-30 a.m. she never opened her lips .
