Persuaded Her
10 Sell the Home

After remarrying. he persuaded
me 10 sell my home so we could
build new one. He said this
would help him face the neighbors.
So we built a charming home
Ion the - road, and every
thing was smooth again for awhile
Then the same thing happened
again. My son has married and
is in the army and his wife lives
with me and so does my husband.
Up until now he hasn't offered
10 pay any of the bills and |
have been paying for the house.
IeaH't stand it any longer and /
haven't the strength to fight any
more.
/ would like TO have my home
because ii means so much to me.
After the war is won and my
son comes back I would like very
much to provide a home for him
and his wife. / wish you would
tell me what TO do.
