"I'll do my traveling on the freighter. If you are on the Normandy or the Queen Mary, people can call you every night on the shlp-to-shore telephone. But on s freighter, you really get away from the world." The idea has fascinating nosstbiUties for errors.

Opera Singer Laurits Melchior not only found his daughter, Blrte, in Germany but discovered that she was married and that he had a grandson namesake that he didn't know anything about.
