13—'The Dark Shadow'
When Lilian Lang was nine years old her mother was taken to a mental hospital where she spent several years. The stress of her day and age-unemployment and domestic hardship in the 1930s-proved too much for her. Lilian grew up under this dark shadow even after her mother returned home. Her marriage didn't work out and, like her mother, she found that the stress of her day and age was more than she was equipped to bear. She too spent a period in a mental hospital. The treatment she received and her own courage and intelligence have now dispelled her dark shadow and made her a valuable member of society.
