Description
Kenneth tells how Mr. Snyder suddenly died in Nakhon from a stroke. Kenneth and Dr. McDaniels made the coffin and shipped the body to Bangkok where it was burried. The Landons remember Mrs. Snyder as a bitter woman and how she failed to crush Kenneth. Margaret gives more details about the Snyders and burial in that part of the world at the time. Mr. Snyder himself was very overbearing.
