Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hilda Lane's Adoptions
Why, I told you Peggy nearly fainted when she saw Jerry. She couldn't look anywhere but the places Where something was off, and her hand was as limp as cotton when she held it out to him. But Mrs. Payson didn't act like anything was out of fix with Jerry. She kept looking at his good eye, and leaned up close to his good side so he could put his arm round her, and then she pulled his face down to hers and kissed him steady for a minute or two, and all she said was, 't'here 's chicken pot-pie for dinner, Jerry, and plenty. Of it But she busted out crying then, and Jerry got white and shaky and he busted out crying, and all the rest of us broke down too - nobody knows what for.
