Six figures anyhow. I packed it away in oil rags in a watertight tin box and forgot it. I don't think any of the others knew 1'ihad it. Does that help you 'Miss Cosgrove could have supplied the resti-of the serial number from memory. There was doubt in Bea's mind that the gun was the one she had'smuggled 'onto Speare Island and had hidden among the sugar sacks on the night of her arrival.

She also recalled the gently swinging door that had aroused her suspicions after she had hidden the gun. Harding took the gun from his and looked at it closely. Ihe first number is correct I think it is clear this is your wea- that detail 'near Mrs. Lilly Warren at the time of her death. The method by which she obtained the weapon is clear.

I think you wrong, and that it would be bettor for you and far better for the girls themselves If you would let them help you with the household chores. For if you slave and let your daughters go idle; if you do without everything to give to them, you not only make them you will teach them to put you below themselves and they will have nothing but contempt for you. Believe me, it is not the mothers who work themselves to death for their children and who sacrifice everything for their children whom their children admire and reverence and appreciate.

On the contrary, the adored mothers arc those who put themselves up on a pedestal and make their children serve them. Assign Jobs I think from the time children are little tots they should each have their family responsibilities, the UUle jobs that they arc capable' of doing and that they should be held responsible for doing.
