For seven years, the gentleman"

Robertson, according to his story
came to America with young wife,

patterned after the ancestral home in
Scotland. The young wife died, the
fortune disappeared. Robertson took
his three children and went back to
Scotland. He married again. His sec

partly because of this, he was disin-
herited.
