Jane says I'm too ole to work any more, and must go to the porehouse. William waits a bit to think it over, and then says there is no other wav. He says he'll see about it "But the wants and needs, oi an old woman like you can't be much of a jurden to them," I protested. "No," she sighed, "but ole folks is in younger ones.
