Five friends, Andrew, Bernard, Claude, Donald, and Eugene, each have a son
and a daughter. Their families are so close that each has married his daughter
to the son of one of his friends, and as a result the daughter-in-law of the
father of Andrew's son-in-law is the sister-in-law of Bernard's son, and the
son-in-law of the father of Claude's daughter-in-law is the brother-in-law of
Donald's daughter. But although the daughter-in-law of the father of Bernard's
daughter-in-law has the same mother-in-law as the son-in-law of the father of
Donald's son-in-law, the situation is simplified by the fact that no
daughter-in-law is the sister-in-law of the daughter of her father-in-law.
