140 ROAMIN' IN THE GLOAMIN' in the event of the deal going through. Next morning I got the following telegram from my wife. Book of Ruth, Chapter One, Verse Sixteen. Love Nance. At first I couldn't understand what it was all about and George Foster, who is a Jew and ought to have known all about his biblical ancestors, was completely befogged. But my old Sunday School training came to my rescue. I remembered vaguely the story of Ruth and Naomi — " Whither thou goest I will go" — and on looking up the passage to get the hang of it clearly I had certainly to hand it to Nance for a most apt and affecting reply to my telegram. So, after some more careful consideration, I signed my name on the dotted line. At that time I thought it a great risk and I remember that I sighed heavily.
