She bade him go, or she must herself go.

He called her by his own name, and begged her, by the memory of their dead child, to speak kindly to him.
She said he was quite mistaken in her name, that she was Mrs.Glave, not Mrs.Anson, and again insisted that he should go.

He left her, and at last, broken-hearted, found his way, in illness and poverty to the hospital, where, toward the last, he was cared for by a noble girl, a companion of his boyhood and his better days, who urged his wife to visit him.

She left him alone, said unpleasant things to the girl, did not come to see her husband when he was dead, and provided nothing for his burial.
