er from marrying the woman OF his
choice, he has remained forty years
in bed. He is now II years old.

the very day when he said TO his faith.

"'.Joseph felt that after seeing her
he could never love any other girl. He
was stubborn and used to having his
own way. He did not like to be
crossed, At first, when he took to
his bed, none Of us thought that he
would stay there long.
