I think the quotation could reasonably be read to reflect both of your interpretations. <BR/><BR/>ThomasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826793.post-54323531284868600512007-08-30T23:59:00.000-05:002007-08-30T23:59:00.000-05:002007-08-30T23:59:00.000-05:00No, he said that the woman he bought the house from was his former teacher who allowed him to buy it at $2000 like a gift.
