“Did you have any conference with them?”
“I talked with Clarence, not with his father.”
“Did you think the father knew you?”
“Yes, but he did not speak to me.”
“He told me when I called upon him some time ago that you were dead—that you died in Georgia.”
“What could have been his object?”
“He did not wish me to find you, for I had the proof that the estate was rightfully yours.”
“What led you to think I was alive?”
“I cross-examined Clarence, who did not know his father’s desire to keep us apart.”
“Is the estate a large one?”
