(4)
'I don't know , my dear. Do you like it ?'
"The eyes look so sad , and they seem to be staring at me , As
if the person was alive, and wanted to speak to me but couldn't
."
' You're weak and nervous after your illness,' Mrs Bedwin said
kindly. ' Don't worry about things like that.'
Later that day Mr Brownlow came in , having heard that the boy
was a little better at last. He was delighted to see that Oliver
could sit up. But when he saw Oliver's face clearly, Mr Brownlow
stared hard at him.
'I hope you're not amgry with me , sir,'
said Oliver anxiously.
'No,no . Not in the least,' he replied. Then he turned to the
housekeeper. 'But look , Mrs Bedwin, look there!' pointed to the
picture of the woman above Oliver's head and then to the boy's
face. It was a living copy of the picture' even the expression was
the same . Oliver did not understand what was happening . He was so
alarmed by Mr Brownlow excitement that he fainted once more.
