to Mother Waverly's to hear what

tie he had to leave.
Jack came alone and seemed
much surprised and a little sulky
when the lawyer asked that Mary

mother or Jack. Mollie looked
curious only and Dicks face was

While We waited mother tried
to chat with the lawyer begin

health. Jack drummed on the
