False pride I call it.

Me and Seth would like to do something for her, but we have a hard enough job to keep going ourselves.

Mary married a man by the name of Henry Thomas, and he turned out to be a miserable good-for-nothing, as I always said he would.

She wouldn't listen to me though.

He run off and left her seven year ago last April, and I understand was killed or drowned somewheres up in Montana.
