Daddy Good by ALLEN SADDLER
An old man returns to the great house where he spent much of his childhood - a summer home for poor children with a tendency to spill over ' into winter months. Here he recalls that life and the man who looked after the children, Frank Goodman (' Daddy Good ).
And uncovers a mystery: why did Goodman have to give it up?
