To care for them kept my family rustling and there was also a shortage of money. All my wife's letters were light hearted and full of cheer, in spite of their struggle. The Board of Education paid my transportation both ways as I bought equipment for the East Side High School Art Department? On returning home I planned hourly the joy of meeting them at the depot but as the train was many hours late I was disappointed. They had waited hours for me but had finally gone home.

My last trip to leave them was to Salt Lake from California to visit my mother, and to judge in the State Fair.`" I felt happy on this trip as we thought my wife was well on her way to health. rated me from her.

Along with the message of love I saw in Her face I saw that the dreaded destroyer had begun his work again. I never let her see the blow I felt. One of the first questions she asked when I was taken care of was, "How do I look?" She knew by her speeding heart what was taking place. 12 See Part Two note 72. 13 See Part Three, note 7. 138 |
