During the typhus season, the people who were not sick could do as they pleased. They got more food to eat, since the others were too sick. They could go outside and come back late in the evening. Helen was sick, not with typhus, but with consumption (a disease of the lungs).

Bessie is married to Robert Leaven, the coachman. She has a son, Robert "Bobby" Leaven Jr, and an infant daughter also.
