to set the table. She was quite

expose him to the emotional
strain of a parting on a cold,
wind-swept, depressing pier. His
diet was discussed, his schooling,

closing the house, and to share
his little bedroom until she

upon Howard's new position,
and the Orient, Adelaide was in
her element, having known sew

parts who had either been MUIR

cannibals or who had died, lin

malaria. There was even one
family wiped out with cholera.
