Adams Smith was from a wealthy family but he was the only son of his late mother, his father Mr Smith remarried Mrs Cary, who was very spiteful l and wicked to Adam.
"Is she making that face at me?" said Adam thoughtfully to himself bewildered "She's something else I guess." and he looked up again and saw they had left their seats.
