"Jack Foster and Terry O'Brien write to me very often," goes on Mona, unconsciously. "And indeed they all do occasionally, at Christmas, you know, and Easter and Midsummer, just to ask me how I am, and to tell me how they have got through their exams.

Soon some people came to meet them and said, "What is this? Why are you mourning? Where is your husband?" The stories here told come down to us from very ancient times.
