Unlike his wife, Edgar was tall and straight, his seamed face topped by thick gray hair. Nellie, he thought now, looking at her anxious face, was a worrier. Nellie, though, turned out to be right. From the day the new tenants moved in, the Nicholsons’ peace was gone. Neither Nellie nor Edgar saw the tenants move in. they heard them.
