Robertus was not a kind man: he did what he could, he maintained his family as best he might - however, he was not loved, for he was rarely loveable.
His wife Isabelle, was considerably younger. She was not Johnathon’s mother, but a substitute, being his second wife after the early death of the first wife who passed from a rupture to the stomach, that came from a blow from Robertus.
When Jonathon returned home he found that Isabelle was gone. She had left behind a note and a loaf of cake.
Exhausted, Jon sat beside the pitted bench, staring at the basket with the unknown head inside.
