Chapter Two

"You look sad my love," Jeremy frowned slightly, looking at the woman who held his heart. "What's wrong Cora?"

Cora sighed, turning away from gazing in the distance. "Nothing that time will not cure."

"I am here for you my darling," Jeremy rode up to his new bride. "If anyone saw you looking this unhappy they would think that your husband of a few weeks is not treating you right."

"The house isn't finished yet," Cora said, referring to the cabin that she was building right next door to Richard and Annie West's house. Richard had kept his promise of giving her a small piece of land where she could to build a house for herself, but she decided instead to build a house for her mother.

For a long time now, she had been urging her mother to come to Tipton but Rita always said her husband would not let her come, and she was a staunch Catholic who believed that she had to stay in her marriage, no matter how terrible it was. "The house is not yet finished," Cora repeated. "And my mama is set to arrive any day now."

Jeremy reached out a hand and touched his wife's cheek. "She will probably delay the trip because of taking care of matters after your father's death. Your mother is grieving and perhaps that will delay her journey."

Cora doubted it but did not voice her thoughts. She had never told Jeremy about the rough life that her mother had had to endure for more years than she cared to acknowledge. Now that her father was dead she was sure there was nothing holding her mother back. She wondered if her mother would bring her younger siblings with her. Cora had left home with promises of bringing her sisters out here and she would be glad to see them, though she wondered if George would allow the children to leave.

"I have to make sure everything is ready for when mama arrives. It will be wonderful to have her here and I'm looking forward so much to seeing her. She's had a hard life and perhaps one day I'll be able to tell you about it, but for now I just want her here where I can look after her."

"All will be well," Jeremy sighed. "Richard and I will be going to see Robin later on. Do you want me to get you anything from the mercantile?"

"Is there anything left in that store at all that hasn't already been eaten by rats or covered in dust?" Cora asked. "I'm really worried about Robin. Annie and I were at the store the other day and he did not serve us at all, just looked at us as we purchased whatever we wanted. We placed the money on the counter but he seemed confused and not quite with us."

"That's why Richard and I have taken it upon ourselves to look in on him almost every day. We are afraid that he might harm himself because of his grief.
