Alma read Ennis's postcard with a twinge of fear and loathing.

When Alma Jr. was nine and Francine seven, Alma reassessed her life and decided that she would be better off without Ennis in it.

"O" is obtuseness

Timmy's obtuseness, coupled with a chatty nature, made him a rather trying companion for Ennis during the summer weeks working on the county roads.

"N" is ninth

Ennis had wanted to be a sophomore -- he felt the word carried a kind of distinction -- but he never got further than the ninth grade.

"M" is malarkey

Ennis was a quiet and close-mouthed man, not given to alot of malarkey and idle chatter, unlike his more outgoing friend Jack.

Knowing it portends another "fishing trip", Alma loathes seeing Jack's latest postcard to Ennis.

"H" is high-strung

Ennis's comment about a "low startle point" was made in reference to the high-strung temperament of Jack's horse.
