Only 1 can be proven.
Hi Chris ... you're right. Did not ask which one ... but it is now corrected.
There's a contradiction.
It says the granddaughters are beautiful AND they have red hair. Aren't these mutually exclusive? :)
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. All that matters is that the grandfather thinks they're beautiful.

Chris, how do you know it is a grandfather?
You got me there :(
