listen to what the units said‚ remember where everyone was‚ where they were going and what they were doing.

My definition of "old-timer" would be someone in their 70s.80s. So I would take the age at which Mr. Old Timer was raising his children‚ which was apparently when he would have been at the age to determine respectfulness of his own children.

Nightwatch was a collection of citizens who patrolled at night monitoring the city for fires and other problems‚ eventually progressing
