Better Have Died with the Secret.

In certain Kansas town not long
since a widow came to die. She had
daughter aged % and a son aged
26. Just before breathing her last
she called them to her bedside and
told them that both were adopted

They had been adopted by herself
and her husband when they were in
fants. They had never heard it hint
ed that they were not brother and
sister and the offspring of their sup

has worried herself to a shadow in
wondering who her parents were and
what her true name is. The son grew
sullen and morose and then went
away to some part unknown. And
the question is, did the dying widow
do right in telling them the truth p
