He was a lavish spender and extremely attentive. I told him I was too young that I was only 17. We swept through lire on clouds of happiness. Whatever I desired was mine. An automobile was at my dis posal.. He spent $2,000 a year on my clothes. He gave me $50 a week for pin money. "But all this time his parents were protesting to , him against his mar riage.
