The couples have since made several moves, but have never been separated. They now are living in the same hduse in Florida. A joint bank account is kept by the two brothers. Each owns an equal share in a business enterprise. Their home is entered on the tax roll as belonging to them jointly and a bill contracted by one brother is paid by the other if he receives it first. It is a common belief that two families cannot live in peace under the same roof. Usually they cannot. But also it is twentieth century philosophy that anything can happen once.
