Dottie replied, “We do not need to know anything else, we are just supposed to sign it. There was a mild protest, “Wait a minute, we have not read it that well. When Dottie saw that, she immediately said, “Give me a pencil”. Dottie was not really interested in anything except that “thirteen cents”.
