Can someone ID this old ss? I think it may be by John Galsworthy.  
Anyway, the story begins with a young married couple at a lawyer’s office-they are setting up a trust for their children…then years later, the same couple shows up. This time, they hate eachother, and are seeking a divorce.  
Anybody know what the story was?
