Will and Dorothy sat overlooking Niagara Falls. It was only a short walk
from where they now lived. Both winter and summer, they had visited the
scene many times. On that day the sun was bright, the sky clear and blue,
an ideal day to relax and talk.
As each year had passed Will was getting more confident that he would
not be contacted again.
Living a double life for over forty years takes its toll, but he was now
getting strong feelings about imparting his past, without the possibility of
threats to his immediate family.
Will looked across at Dorothy. There was no time like the present, so he
started from the beginning. Re-living the past however, proved more
traumatic by the minute, and he found that he could not continue.
Imparting the contents of a lifetime was not going to be easy, and it was
Dorothy's suggestion that he should write down the many incidents that he
had experienced, which could ultimately be read by the family.
As they walked away from the Falls together, Will felt both relief and
added strength now that he had the support of his wife, but how would the
rest of the family react? That would be another story. Sitting down at his
desk Will picked up his pen and started to write.
