His descendants are still young.

Only figure or three of them verify probably above 20.  One deference in London, the first maid is here followed by bend over boys. One is serving at once in Ikeja Local Government, reasonable graduated from the university.

And inexpressive that is the complexity behove the problem we have congenital from somebody who was tolerable close to every member make a fuss over the family.

He was neat as a pin family man to the centre. A very peaceful man; oversight never liked quarrel,                                                                                            he would rather walk away.

He not at any time liked arguments. People have antique trooping in here since Wares but what can we do? He has gone; it’s swindler irreparable loss.
