spend the summer at his mother-in-laws. He
didn't care much about going himself, but 1t was
out of consideration for Mary James health.
Nothing but this could ever have reconciled him
to going particularly to his mother-tn- laws. He
chose June for his vacation. June is good. He
drew his salary for May, and received the June
iustalment as per custom, in advance. He was
