| Grandma dragged out the old tin bath, sat each kid in it, and treated the outbreak with kero. |
| For the next several weeks, Grandma refused to speak to Mother, openly snubbing her not only in public but in her own backyard as well. |

| Grandma and grandpa were there too, only in like a sort of ghostly insubstantial form. |
| Today we travel down to the West to do the funeral service and burial for Grandma on Saturday. |
