KO

Ko

Ko is a family friend of Billy.  Billy's parents had met Ko in the Orient.  Ko could speak several languages.  Billy had taken Adam to see him, when Adam received a lantern.  Ko had a huge collection of lanterns.  Adam was having trouble reading the inscription on the lantern.  Ko was able to read it, but the inscription was still a puzzle to Adam.  Ko tried to answer Adam's questions, but he spoke in such a cryptic manner, that Adam was simply confused.  Billy and Adam thanked Ko for his time.  Billy confess that sometimes Ko's advice doesn't make sense till a day or two later.
