Mr. Jenner. She said that he had had a heart attack, is that right?
Mrs. Evans. Yes; she did.
Mr. Jenner. And he was courting her during this time?
Mrs. Evans. Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner. His sister came down from Boston, is that right, to sort of see how he was getting along here, is that correct?
Mrs. Evans. That's right. I guess that's what prompted her to come down here, because he had had this trouble, and I guess she was concerned about him.
Mr. Jenner. And that courtship between him and Marguerite ripened into marriage then; is that right?
Mrs. Evans. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. Did Ekdahl's sister approve of Marguerite?
Mrs. Evans. Oh, yes; she wanted her to marry Ekdahl, and before she went back to Boston, Margie made her a promise that she would look after him.
