Pear Ann Landers; You goof.
ed. Recently you stated • the
record for late child-bearing
was held by a woman 53 years
of age, I know a woman who
gave birth to a child at the
age 90, Her name was Sarah.
Her husband, Abraham, was
100. -
Let's see .your fancy Har.
yard medical consultant bail
you out of this one, Baby,. -THE
TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT
ig° Dear Nothing Kl3ut.- I
wouldn't go to my Harviird
medical consultant with
this one because it is not a
medical matter. It's a mat.
ter ofbibicalinterpretation
I consulted two dis.
tinguished rabbis and was
told there are several ex.
planations. x Take your
choice. Ft a thousand
years ago, time was re-
ckoned, according to lunar
months. The 1'00 -year old
man -in the Bible would be
considerably younger ac.
cording to preset{t-day cal.
culations.
Then there is the age-old
question of whether one in.
terprets the Bible literally
or assumes these stories
were made up to illustrate
a point.
It was interesting to me,
that Sarah named her late
arrival Isaac Whish means
"laughter" because at first
she didn't believe she could
beregnant and thought it
wag a joke. ' The Bible
doesn't say when Sarah
stopped laughing, but Tr'll
bet it was shortly after she
received the definite word.

Dear Ann Landers: I'd like
to respond to the widow who
asked,' "Where are the decent, •
eligible men hiding?" The only
unmarried men she met *ere
described as ambulatoryalco.
