Mr. Shaw is really settling in at the Birch Street Nursing Home. Today he was smiling and more talkative than I'd seen him before, even though he was losing hand after hand in poker. I asked him what had cheered him up, and he told me there was some good news in the paper today. Later, during a bathroom break, I glanced at the newspaper that was folded on his chair, and saw a headline about a raid that resulted in several arrests back in his home state.
