In January 1936 Edward went to Windsor for a few weeks.He was tired of town life and he wanted to work in his garden and ride his horses.But then, one afternoon, there was a phone call from Queen Mary.Edward, she said, you must come back immediately. Your father is very ill and I think he's going to die.When Edward arrived, he went straight to his father's room.He walked to the side of the bed and kissed his father's white face.The King opened his eyes and smiled.Then he took his son's hand and said: Be a good King, Edward. And be good to your mother.Yes, father, I will.The King closed his eyes and did not speak again. Just after midnight he died.Then Queen Mary took Edward's hand and kissed it．My child， you are now King，she said softly,God be with you．His three brothers came to him， one by one， and they each kissed his hand．
