ABSTRACT

When they came to the breakfast table, it was nearly nine o’clock. The children were in a hurry for their school bus-they seemed to have returned to their usual patterns with the resiliency characteristic of the young. For Trudi, it was not, and would not be, as easy, but Goodman had the feeling that in time she would remarry and the children would once again have a father, hopefully someone as caring as Peter Wemer. When the children had gone and the dishes were cleared, Johanna told her sister that she would be go­ ing away for awhile.
