do you know there was an old woman there who looked in her dotage. she scraped an acquaintance with Emma & told her she was Richards sister Frank Healy she came with Frank Richardsons widow. it seems that her brother Richard is sick in his last sickness has a day nurse & also a night nurse. Emma says that Helen Farrell is making up to the Worcester people in hopes of getting some of their money, she doesn't like Helen. that she goes there every Sunday, hope she gets some, Franks widows the one who should get the husbands share of the property. He died as you remember very sudden dropped on the street. but all of Aunt Janes money went to the Healey crowd also Nells & Henry Swans so by this time they must have a pile. you would think they could afford to dress better than that old woman we saw at Ethels funeral. she looked like a pauper.
