relation. She heard that her old school friend was living in the
next town. and she rang him up and he came over to see her.
They got out some old photographs and laughed and cried
over them and talked about teacher and how the wild blackberres
used to grow in the garden spot where teacher boarded. They had
the time of their lives and the Man asked the Woman TO bring
her little granddaughter and spend the day at his ranch. and the
Woman and the granddaughter we're delighted They'd never seen
n real Western ranch. and they planned what they'd wear. what
they'd do and say-and one day they got a letter from the Man,
a sort Of cool letter it was, saying he a going North on business
and wouldn't be there for awhile, and so glad they'd had The nice
little visit and too bad they couldn't see his ranch, but some other
time maybe-and that was that.
And the Woman and the granddaughter were disappointed
and sorry, and now it turns out that il was all the fault Of the
Mans sisterinlaw.
The man is well to do, and has a good, prosperous ranch, and
a nice car and a bit of money in stocks and bonds, and ssterin-
law thought she and her children would get all these nice things
some fine day. and the minute she heard Of the old friend from
the East, she put in her oar and turned the Man against his old
friend in some secret way such women have-and now the whole
friendly, pleasant little affair is over-for good, or for evil, which
ever way you want to look at it, And it was all such a tempest
in a teapot, because the, woman from the East hadn't the faintest
idea OF a love affair, Or even a mild filtration with the man, he
wasn't a male to her at all, he was just an old friend who knew
her mother and father and her little brother who was drowned,
and IL was a comfort to talk TO him about the old days.
Do you know what | hope? I hope the Man will meet a
designing widow within the next twenty-four hours and marry her
and settle every cent he has in the world on her and when he dies
] hope sister-inlaw will have 10 20 TO the funeral and behave like
n decent human being for a few minutes.
