The next day, Mom called Bill's daughter Margaret and, among other things, mentioned what John had said. After hanging up the phone Margaret told Bill, who was lying on the kitchen couch, * Uncle John said he could beat you if he had his other boots on." Jumping up from his place of repose, Bill hit the table with his fist. "Like hell he could!" was the reply of Margaret's seventy-year-old father.
