AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The man comes into his sitting-room carrying the girl in his arms. He puts her unconscious form on the settee and mechanically fans her with her own hat. Suddenly he throws this impatiently on the table, takes off his own hat and coat and, putting them down on a chair, brings down a glass of water from the sideboard. He flicks water into the gill's face and she rouses a little. Seeing this, he puts the glass back, grabs up a newspaper and seats himself in the chair with his back to her.'
