Pa started on the frame house that spring. We had been living in the sod dugout up until then. Except the girls, they moved into the loft of the barn as soon as that was built.
Some itinerant Methodists come around from time to time and folks would go to the revivals. Of course there was no dancing allowed for several weeks after such a meeting. Pa's drinking became more secretive too. It was a tough winter - lots of cold but not enough snow. The cisterns in the bluffs are low and pasture for the cows will be sparse.
Well, that's the news from the farm.

You ignored it once, and sidestepped the second time. Was GR lying or not when he called that 5 PM meeting during Spring Break?
Wait, in Hannibal, it suddenly was not the same story anymore.....
The closing never came.
Except for those who had real lives after that.
