DURING the first years of my service in Dr. Flint's family, I was accustomed to share some indulgences with the children of my mistress.

It was my father who - after, at age 15, I had attempted unsuccessfully to drive the family car using a 'borrowed' key and knocked down a wall of the garage - convinced me over the telephone not to run away from home and who then came home from work not to punish me but rather to console and comfort me.

McVeigh's lawyer got him the death penalty, which, quite frankly, I could have done.
