or diminutives, such as Willie or
Will for William, was married and
in due course of time had five boys
The first one was named William
after his father. Maybe it - would
have been shortened to Willie or
Will. but, the 'second was Wilmer;
the third Wilbur; the fourth Wil
bert and the fifth Wifred. “All
laughed the father, “now people
will have to call them
proper names, and not
names.” As a result of
five boys were known
Chuck, Skinny, Tubby and Buddy.

So much?” Dottie: “Tp keep my
