7.Uncle Caesar was waiting outside the hotel the next afternoon.He took me to Miss Adair's house and agreed to wait there until we had finished our business.
Miss Adair did not look well.I explained the agreement (協(xié)議) to her.She signed it.Then,as she started to rise from the table,she fainted (暈倒) and fell to the floor.I picked her up and carried her to the old red sofa.I ran to the door and yelled to Uncle Caesar for help.He ran down the street.Five minutes later,he was back with a doctor.
The doctor examined Miss Adair and turned to the old black driver."Uncle Caesar,"he said,"run to my house and ask my wife for some milk and some eggs.Hurry!"
Then the doctor turned to me."She does not get enough to eat,"he said."She has many friends who want to help her,but she is proud.Mrs Caswell will accept help only from that old black man.He was once her family's slave."
"Mrs Caswell?"I said in surprise."I thought she was Miss Adair."
"She was,"the doctor answered,"until she married Wentworth Caswell twenty years ago.But he's a hopeless drunk who takes even the small amount of money that Uncle Caesar gives her."
After the doctor left,I heard Caesar's voice in the other room."Did he take all the money I gave you yesterday?""Yes,Caesar,"I heard her answer softly."He took both dollars."
I went into the room and gave Miss Adair fifty dollars.I told her it was from the magazine.Then Uncle Caesar drove me back to the hotel.
