A. Well, her father used to be the Hebrew teacher, and he was my teacher at one time. And Bessie was his daughter, and they always used to mistake her for my sister, Bessie. although I don't think they looked anything alike. They were both cute. Here she is.

Q. Yeah. Then she's also at the bottom.
