Dear Mama Rose,

We have a surprise for you. My brothers and I have been tucking a little money away for this fine day. We believe we have enough now for Cole and Douglas to come and fetch you. Hear me out, Mama, before you start shaking your head. First of all, if you’re worried about the cost, then don’t. We have worked everything out and once you get settled here, you’ll see we’re just doing fine. It’s still winter, of course, and my brothers won’t be able to leave until after spring roundup. I have to chuckle about our herd. We started with two breeding cows and now we have ten. We’ll have five more after the birthings. It won’t take us any time at all to gather ours up, but neighbors help neighbors, and so we’ll give a hand to the Pearlman family. They have around eighty steers now. They’ve been mighty generous to us. They don’t charge us for the services of their bull. We’ve promised to buy one of our own, and when we do, we’ll reciprocate the kindness.

You’re worried about Livonia, aren’t you? I know she’s blind, Mama, and depends on you for every little thing, but we need you too. If you train someone else to take over your chores, Livonia will get along just fine. She has two sons to look after her. I know they’re bad-natured, but they are her sons and therefore responsible for her. Livonia will understand. Please don’t argue with us. We’ve waited long enough and so have you. Our minds are set. Unless we hear from you, Cole and Douglas will be knocking on your door around the first of June.
