Deceased Wife's Sister's Bill

The opposition for years to the "Deceased Wife's Sister's Bill" in Parliament may have been born of sad experience. Some of those who opposed it may have had the sad lot of having to live with deceased mothers' sisters as stepmothers, who ought to have been the best of foster-mothers, but who, alas! were too selfish and foolishly jealous of a husband's love for his children. Thank God, not all dead wives' and mothers' sisters are the same. Some of them are the best of mothers to those left orphans.
