Molly remembered, when the pipe was nice and hot Joseph would hold on to the bowl with his fingers and with a upward shroke of his thumb across the bowl he would shine it like a cat's tail in the moonlight. Joseph did not drink, he was very industrious and a hard worker. He was a reserved and quiet man. He had blue eves that twinkled, a runny complexion, that looked fresh and it looked like he might have had red hair when he was younger. The family was not musical but they had a gram-a-phone and played 'Maid in the Mountains' Joseph was a carpenter. Molly remembers a table he made. It had a removable top, one side with a scrub top and the other for show, the good side.
