For a few years Helen and I received a greetings card from her each Christmas with a Dunedin postmark but no address which would have let us answer it. Did Dad get a card also? If he did he never spoke of it. The cards stopped after five or six years. If she is still alive she is over seventy. I never remember her birthday. We did not celebrate birthdays in our family. Wait a minute, Dad did keep her cards. I found them in the little bureau drawer after he died along with his birth certificate for 14 January 1896 (father, Archibald MacLeish, Coalminer/mother, Jeanie Stevenson, Power Loom Weaver) and his First World War medals, and wedding photo, and a little magnifying glass which came with some stamps he once bought me. I threw all these things out. No good comes from brooding upon the past.
