                                                                      My Family,”My” Choice!

                                                                       New Orleans, Louisiana

The train pulled into the depot…early afternoon…Kitty Had thought about this trip all the way …
Wondering just what was this all about?   Yes, New Orleans was her Home Town.. But, it had discarded her
What seemed like a lifetime ago…!    She had thought many time of returning… if it wasn’t for a certain 6’6
Incredibly handsome Blue-eyed Cowboy.. That stole her heart…!   But , there are so many ghost here….
Hummmmmmm, Why, ? Why this summons ? This Summons for my presence … Now?   
Well, Kitty ol’ Gal… I guess now that you’re here… You’ll find out won’t you?  
But, First things First… A Hotel, And I’m Hungry… with that a slight smile came to her face…
Along with the thought… “ Cowboy, I must be hanging around you too much…”  ..Food becoming a common thought!….


One she had spotted her Carriage and driver… He approached her and Introduced himself….Good Afternoon Miss Russell!, My Name is Reginald .. I was sent to escort you to….Excuse me… Reginald?
You were sent?  Yes Ma’am … May I ask by whom?   Mr. LaTrese and Mr. DuPree  I am to escort you
Anywhere you wish to go Miss Russell…   Ohhh!, I see.. Well Thank You, I’ll be Staying at ….
The Hotel Monteleone, on Rue Royle.. , Ahh, Yes Miss Russell..  One of the very finest of our Establishments…   Have you visited with us in our fair city before..?   Oh, Reginald…I am Born and raised
In New Orleans.   Yes, Sorry Miss Russell I should have Known.  Why?  A Gracious Lady such as Yourself.   Well then in that case … Welcome Home !   Thank You ..Reginald.

When she pulled up in front of the Hotel Monteleone … it reminded her that Yes indeed she was coming
Home in some way… ,But, then again New Orleans Hadn’t been home for a very long time…
When she stepped out of the carriage…, Reginald held out a hand to assist her down… then the door man
Approached her…. Welcome to The Hotel Monteleone Ma’am   I do hope you will enjoy your stay?
And if there is anything I can do for you Please, don’t hesitate to ask?   My name is Frederick. 
Why , Thank You Frederick..!   And I’m certain I will enjoy it here.  As she entered, Reginald followed
Her to the main front desk… Walking thru the lobby…, many eyes were on her… Dressed in an elegantly
Tailored Green traveling dress with a soft yellow ruffled blouse., and a two-tone green Hat, that allowed just a few  Amber-copper curls to fall from below the brim.   Her presence drew the attention of all in the   area.   As she reach the counter… Hello, I have a reservation… My name is Kitty Russell.   Yes, ma’am
I have that right here… the boy will take your thing… will you be staying long?  Oh, a few days.
Very well Miss Russell.  

Kitty , got settled in her room and figured she ‘s have something to eat in the hotel dining room…
So when she came down she also , sent a message to the office of LaTrese and DuPree …
And ask the Desk clerk to have it delivered  to them.   It simply read:

Dear Mr LaTrese and Mr. DuPree
I have arrived in New Orleans this afternoon.. I will come into your office
To discuss the letter you sent me In Dodge City , tomorrow Morning.. First thing
I would like to get this matter taken care of as quickly as possible.

Sincerely,
Kitty Russell

After dropping off the note … she proceeded to the dining room…. Thinking to herself…
I am Famished … and awfully Tired!      She sat at a table that she could be alone and it would be quiet…
But, she couldn’t help but, feel …she wasn’t alone….
