"Poor Simon Cloud was inconsolable. Soon after, one of his brothers died. My brother’s children are in very bad circumstances.... Simon Clode generously provided them with his home. And then he had two girls Grace and Mary and a young man George .. The old man was kind to his brother's children, but never showed such love and affection to them as to his little granddaughter. There was a job for George in a nearby bank. Grace married a young capable chemical scientist named Philip Garrod. Mary was an inconspicuous, withdrawn girl, she stayed in the house and took care of her uncle. I guess she loved him in her reserved manner. Everything seems to be going peacefully.... Note that after the death of little Christobel Simon Claude came to me and instructed me to make a new will. According to this will, his fortune, very significant, was divided between his nephew and nieces: each of the third.
