( Scarcely had I dropped off when I was in my Hurricane rushing head-on at a 110. Just as we were about to collide I woke up with a jerk that nearly threw me out of bed. I was in a cold sweat, my heart banging wildly. I dropped off again – but the nightmare returned. This went on at intervals of about ten minutes all night. I shall never forget how I clung to the bed-rail in a dead funk. If there is ever a choice between physical and mental pain, I’ll take physical every time. )
