[Toby G Levy]

        Dixon has been fortunate to find a good woman in the person of
Margaret Bland. She lives with him even though he has not married her.
He has two daughters with her.  Dixon asks Mason about his boys, who he
is sure must be fully grown by now and this reminds Mason to tell Dixon
that he has remarried. He had another son with her whom he named Charles
Junior.  Then Mason's father remarried. Both new wives are named Mary.

        Mason has come to dislike his father less over the years.  He
remarks to Dixon, "Next worst thing to unrequited Love, isn't it?
Insufficient hate."

        They fall asleep by the fireplace and each dreams of each other.
Dixon's takes the form of he and Mason singing a vaudeville type song on
a stage.

        Dixon hopes to make a little more money and then return to
America and look up his acquaintances Washington, Franklin and Captain
Shelby.
