Very well. The day that will was drawn she said to me, “The Jordans are all waiting for me to die, like carrion crows around a sick cow in a pasture, watchin’ till the last twitch of life is out of me before they pounce. I’m going to fool them,” she said, “I’m going to surprise them; they are all fools but Jane—Jane’s no fool.”
BEN (bitterly)
No—Ha! Ha! Ha! Jane’s no fool!
