Two cars, running in opposite direc-

estry superintendent, permitted the
station to draw upon the surplus stock

that the wife of his youth has been
dead these twenty years and the OLD

some details missing as to why ne
nan had not thought to look for his
wife earlier, as he must have return

was sad enough.
