I’mmaking all the arrangements. Your daughter will have the best doctormoney can buy before the baby is born. She’ll be in the best hospital.And afterward, I am arranging for a trust fund for her where she willreceive a check for twenty five hundred dollars a week.“ The mother wastaken aback and thought for a moment.“Tell me,“ she said, „God forbid, she should have a miscarriage, will you give her another chance?“
