  12. ↑ page 66: "Melvin, also, was an alcoholic who never held more than acommon laborer's job. He was separated from his wife and children whenhe lived in Shepherd in 1936. My mother and grandmother talked aboutthem in the Stelzer road kitchen. Melvin's wife supported herself andher two sons, they said, by taking in washing and ironing. Melvin'swife and sons lived in Shepherd in a small frame building, once a store,right on the street on Fifth Avenue. I remember thinking when I rode byon the bus that the lace curtains at the large front windows andcovering the glass in the front door looked incongruous."
    page 67; "Melvin lived with his mother after he and his wife divorced.I believe that he disappeared for time or was asked to leave; but whenI was in college, he came back. I remember my grandmother standing infront of the large fern in front of the south window in the living room,looking out, agitated, at the field were there were wooden A-frameshelters for the pigs. They were made of discarded faded red freightcar doors my grandfather had brought home from the Pennsylvania RailroadYard. He had found Melvin drunk in one of the shelters, so drunk, mygrandmother said, that he "shit himself". It was the only time I've everheard her use a four-letter word, my grandfather told Melvin not to comethere again."
