At noon, the doctor came, and Sue talk to him in the hallway. Then the doctor said, now I must see another case I was in the building. Behrman, his name – sort of an artist, I elieve. Pneumonia, too. He was an old, weak and very severe. There is no ho for him but he went to the hospitl today to relieve pain. “ No wonder that Behrman died of pneumonia tpday at the hospital.

Character from the story about The Last Leaf, as like as Joana ( Johhnsy) headstrong as well as a bit selfish, a young female artist from california who is stricken with pneumonia before the story begins. Sue (Sudie) a young female artist from Manie, who shares a small studio with Johnsy at the top of a three-story brick building in Greenwich Village, sketched as someone loyal, caring, and devoted.

Sentences such as, ‘There was only a bare, dreary yard to be seen, and the blank side of the brick house twenty feet away,” and “ A persistent, cold rain was falling,” give the reder an unwelcoming description of the suroundings in which his two main charaters were living.
