“He's treated you like a child or a

she regarded him as one of the kindest

felt that she was getting all the rights
she could well take care of. But the
mother had sowed the seeds of discou-
tent. and they soon sprouted. Tilda
began to find fault and tender ild\‘:i(‘0
and to even threaten suicide if her
opinions were not deferred to. Henry
figured out that the mother-in- law had;
been talking and using her influence
against him, but he went ahead pu-
tieutly and avoided any thing like a
rupture.
It was when the boy baby was born
that Tildn’ s mother said to her:
“Now. you want to put your foot
right down about a name for baby. I
am sure Henry will want to call him
James. after an uncle."
