THE TRUTH ABOUT MARRIAGE
knowledge in New England where a daughter has waited year after year for an invalid mother to live out her life, the mother desiring the daughter to give her whole life to her as long as she lived.
Cases that I have known have been pitiful. Youth and happiness have gone often long before the mother went, (sometimes the father), and lovers as well. Do not wait too long, but wait long enough to be sure of yourself and the other person.
