Owing to a sudden fright in the house the twitching started quite suddenly and soon she was as bad as ever, and became quite helpless. She was -waited on. hand and foot. I had to feed and- dress and even wash her. Her clothes would be so torn with the con* vulsive movements through. cTery part of her body.
