William and Ada had one daughter, Margaret (Palmer), who now lives in foston. Millwood and Mclvina had no children. Joe Nantes , of Maplcwood, had an interesting story to tell about dillwood. Millwood and my rather, Johnny Nantes , used to go to to play cards at John P. Bradley 's. They used to play for five or ten cents a corner and us kids would always ask dad the next day, how much he had won or lost. We'd keep track of it in a scribbler. Sometimes while playing cards they'd have a drink, maybe some moonshine. The ladies would attend on occasion. On one particular occasion Millwood had a little too much to drink and dad had to take him home. When he got Millwood home, his wife Melvina was in bed. My dad counted himself lucky, because—like many men in that situation—he figured that he would be blamed for Millwood 's drinking. So, as quicUy as he could, he half-carried the man into the kitchen and plunked him down in a big chair that was there, sneaked out the door, and breathed a sigh of relief. The following day my dad learned the rest of the story. Before going to bed the night before, Millwood 's wife Melvina had made a big batch of dough in a very large dishpan-type container. She set the dough on the chair to rise, and Millwood sat in it for the night. During the night the heat from his body helped the dough to rise. Well, you can imagine the scene which greeted his wife when she came down to the kitchen early the next morning! 53
