A Will to Endure by REARDEN CONNER
Read by Michael Duffy
' All his life he had been a strong man, rich in health, hating illness and a little contemptuous of it. He had worked out of doors in all weathers without as much as an ache or pain. When he was in his 70th year, some time after his wife's death, the first shaft of real pain struck at him ... " Ah, the devil take it! he muttered, " must be getting an old man ".'
