Robin of Sun Court by Eleanora H. Stooke

A MONTH had elapsed since Richard Burt had been knocked down by the motor-carriage, which had hurt him so badly that he had lain at death's door for several days and was now only strong enough to sit out in an easy-chair in his bedroom for an hour or so at a time.

The accident having occurred close to Sun Court, the injured man had been conveyed to his own home instead of to a hospital, and the driver of the motor-carriage, who was its owner too, though he had been in no way to blame, had generously provided a trained nurse to take charge of him, and had given Mrs. Burt a sufficient sum of money to meet the expenses of his illness.
