moderately prosperous.
Carl is still in the employ of Mr. Jennings, and his father has removed
to Milford, where he and his son can live together. Next September, on
his twenty-first birthday, Carl will be admitted to a junior partnership
in the business, his father furnishing the necessary capital. Carl's
stepmother is in Chicago, and her allowance is paid to her quarterly
through a Chicago bank. She has considerable trouble with Peter, who
has become less submissive as he grows older, and is unwilling to settle
down to steady work. His prospects do not look very bright.
Mr. Jennings and Hannah are as much attached as ever to Carl, and it
is quite likely the manufacturer will make him his heir. Happy in the
society of his son, Dr. Crawford is likely to live to a good old age, in
spite of his weakness and tendency to heart disease, for happiness is a
great aid to longevity.
