Kitty stopping through-out the night, rest amongst trees and
bushes…. Having a harder time walking…partically pain...partically sheer
exhaustion! Leaning against a rock by
a stream,.. splashing her face … wasn’t sure but thought she heard voices… then listening closer.. it was children…
laughing and playing… when they came upon her .. two boys , fishing poles in
hand,.. Hey Lady?.. what’cha doing out here …? Hi Kids!
Barely able to talk…. You two live around here? Yes Ma’am. The answered in tandum. They were about 7 and 8 years old. Look
Boys .. I need your help? Do you
think you can Help me Huh? Sure Lady ,…
what’cha do lose your horse? Smiling
slightly…. Shaking her head… No! I need
you to show me where you live, can you do that for me please? Sure lady that’s
just up over the hill… this is ur favorite fishin hole… That’s nice boys.. the House? The two small Boys, each took her hands…,
com’on.. it just this way …no far lady… You sick or somethin’..? Again smiling at them,… No, ..then thinking...to herself… It’s the or somethin’
….smirking…
Coming up over the Hill, Kitty and the Boys,.. noticed a Rider…. Not waiting to see who it was Kitty hid in
some trees near by… telling the Boys not to say they saw her….
Whoa!...hey there Boys… Hey’a Mister… you lost? No Son, Me and Private Horse here are just
lookin fur a pretty redhead lady… the
two boys lookin’ at one another… then back at the Stranger on the horse… she
your Wife Mister? Smiling ,in thought
for a Minute…. In My Dreams Son … in My Dreams!
So,… you boys see any pretty lady
around here…. Well, we … before he could finish… the second boy nudge
his brother… to remind him not to tell as Kitty had asked. Oh, Nope ..we didn’t see no lady ….
Holly began to ride on,..
when kitty came out .. Lady, you a criminal? Why would you ask me that? That soldier on the Horse said he was
looking for a redhead lady…that’s you …huh?
Soldier? He was a soldier? Yes Ma’am…
which way did he go? She was now
realizing it wasn’t Dawson on the horse… he went back that’a way.. pointing
back in the direction...Holly rode off…
Boys, did he tell you his name?
no, but, he was funny…….
funny? funny how? He called his horse, Private horse… OH, my…..
now knowing exactly who this man, on the horse was… Oh, Holly!... please come back!
The boys continued walking Kitty to their farmhouse, …. And just
before…they reach the house….A voice, called out Caleb, Aaron! As they turned, … their Father came walking
up…. Pa’…we found this Lady down by the stream…. She’s lost Pa’… and hurt too……
When Kitty looked up, and her eyes met with the father…. She
just Inhaled!... and was speechless!
