The Turmoil

CHAPTER XXVI
15/17

They got twelve-thousand dollars to spend, and I hear it can be done in Florida by rich sons-in-law.

When Roscoe's woman got me to spend that much on a porch for their new house, Edith wouldn't give me a minute's rest till I turned over the same to her.

And she's got it, besides what I gave her to go East on.

It'll be gone long before this time next year, and when she comes home and leaves the cigarette behind--for good--she'll get some more.

MY name ain't Tracy, and there ain't goin' to be any Tracy business in the Sheridan family.
