欸, emtih-rann?

100%

My stepfather agreed to have my sister live with him,

but he felt boy's my age should work and support themselves,

so I got a job clerking at a plantation store.

When I was 19, I got a letter from my mother asking me to come visit her

and my sister in Houston.

I decided to go.

I was butterflies.

I was like a doll, dip it in beer and compromise.

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

Had a problem.

My husband didn't have any problems.

He drinks.

Oh, he's fine on a job, but then he gets to drinking.

I have two or three months and they let him go.

He's taken the keel, a cure more times than I can count.

I'm going in to see about shipping our furniture to Harrison.

We sold our home in Houston.

Who's house are you renting in Harrison?

What they call it, the old robedo place.

Halt, halt, halt.

The man was a brilliant lawyer

and drank himself right into the grave.

Mr. Kool.

That was my house.

At least it was my father's.

I lived there until I was eight

until my mother and father separated.

Separated?

Mercy.

That's a terrible thing.

I hope it didn't end in divorce.

No, ma'am.

Is it that your daddy died a drunkard?

Yes, ma'am.

I feel sorry for you, son.

I know what that can mean.

Are you a Christian, son?

Yes, ma'am.

Guess so.

What do you mean you guess so?

There's no guessing about being a Christian.

You're either saved or not.

Are you baptized?

I don't know, ma'am.

What do you mean you don't know?

Well, I hadn't thought about it one way or the other.

I mean, if I was baptized, I was too young to remember it.

Mercy.

Will you ask your mama the first thing you've seen?

Are you asking if you're baptized?

Your soul is in terrible danger, son.

If you're not, do you attend church?

No, ma'am.

The church, my people go to, doesn't have a congregation

in Glenflora.

What church is that?

The Piscopal.

I guess not.

They only have a small one in Harrison.

I am a Baptist.

Yes, ma'am.

If we baptized you, you would have remembered.

Yes, ma'am.

I was baptized in the river.

They cleaned in the river.

Give all my sins to Jesus in the river, washed in the blood of the lamb in the river.

Did you go to school in Harrison?

As far as the sixth grade, then I quit.

My father was an educated man.

All his family were.

They were Greek scholars and Latin scholars.

Do you know the Harrison spectator?

Read it every week?

My uncle started that.

One of them never worked at all, they said.

He just sat around and read books in Greek all the time.

My mother says she'd rather see me dead than that way.

She said he lived a useless life.

I like to read, though.

I can't help it.

I don't tell my mother.

And your Bible?

Do you read your Bible?

No, ma'am.

I don't have a Bible.

You don't have a Bible?

No, ma'am.

Do you say your prayers every night?

No, ma'am.

Well, then you start praying every day on your knees morning and night.

You can hear my prayers all over town.

Mr. Koon says, Mrs. Koon, your praying too loud.

You're keeping people awake with your prayers.

It'll do them good, I said.

Let them hear the prayers of the true Christian.

And then I just pray that much louder.

Sometimes I even shout the devil down.

I say you have to shout loud to shout the devil down.

Would you join me in a little prayer now, sir?

No, ma'am.

That's all right.

I don't think so.

Oh, don't be embarrassed.

I'll never be ashamed to let people know that you are a Christian.

Lord, take this boy here.

What's your name?

Horace.

Horace.

Cleanse Horace, fall his worldly ways.

Far open his eyes to the need of baptism.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

I'm going to pray for you.

Someone's at the door, Mama.

Kate, you open the door, honey.

I'm scared, too, Mama.

Oh, I have a day of habits.

Doris Files says the city's alive.

With beggars and gypsies and white slaves,

she says her mother forbid her after opening her door.

I'm sure that's fine when you're alone, honey.

I don't think you have to worry about me in that house.

Just a minute.

Horace.

Horace.

Lily Dale.

It's Horace.

Oh.

Hello, brother.

We thought you were the gypsies.

Mr. Davenport in Atlanta visiting his kin.

And Mama and I are alone here.

And my girlfriend, Doris Files, says it's very dangerous for ladies and young girls to be left alone in this wicked city.

Yes, it is. Come on, dear son.

How do you like my piano?

It's very nice.

When Mr. Davenport first got married, he got me a second-hand piano straight off.

And then after I learned how to play some, he said he wouldn't have me playing a second-hand piano.

And he went out and bought this one for me.

Brother, you never heard me play the piano, have you?

No.

You want me to play something for you now?

Honey, your brother just got here. He's tired.

He's letting me rest for one hour first.

Yeah. What time do you get up this morning?

Four.

Mr. Davenport's up at four every morning.

And even on Sunday, isn't he, Mama?

Yes, he is. Horace.

You've grown into a nice-looking young man.

Thank you.

How long do you plan on staying, brother?

Oh, I don't know exactly. You mentioned a week in your letter and I thought...

Now, if I fixed you the sandwich, would you eat it?

Sure.

And I have a cake. I made Justice Morning like a piece of that too.

Yes, ma'am.

Oh.

This is a two-story house.

We rent one of the upstairs bedrooms to a quiet couple.

Do you think I've changed?

Yes, you have.

Would you have recognized me if you'd passed me on the street?

I think so.

I keep having this terrible dream that I've been kidnapped.

And they won't let me go until I'm an old woman and when I come back home, no one recognizes me.

And I keep saying, I'm Lily Dale. I'm Lily Dale, RoboDow.

But no one believes me.

You ever have a dream like that?

No.

You ever have dreams?

Sometimes.

Once I dream.

I forget.

We didn't think you were coming when you didn't answer Martha's letter.

I didn't get the letter right away. And when I did get it, I just decided to come on.

How much did it cost you to get here?

Two dollars.

Where'd you get the two dollars?

Mama sent it to me.

She did.

Mama said she'd give me the money to come back once I got here.

B, B, Y, R, and C.

Mama, the vegetable man's out front.

I can hear you, honey.

How much longer will Mr. Dad report me gone?

He was to be gone three weeks.

But we got a letter from him yesterday.

And he said things had changed so in Atlanta that it didn't feel like home any longer and he longed to get back to us.

So he's cutting his trip short.

When Mama got the letter, she said it was a blessing you hadn't come.

She would have been a nervous wreck having you here and expecting Mr. Dad to walk in any minute unexpected.

She sent for you behind his back.

She kind of hinted around for his permission to have you while he was gone.

But he said he didn't think it was a good idea to encourage you to take off from work.

So she didn't press it further but then she decided to write you anyway.

Which at the time I thought was a mistake.

I always think to see you as a mistake, don't you?

Mama, why didn't you tell me you sent brother two dollars for a train ticket?

Well, that was just my secret, honey.

We've all got to have our secrets.

Don't.

B.

Can I play my A-tune for you now, brother?

Sure.

Mr. Danboy says he'd pay his last cent to pay for my music lessons.

Do you have a musical ability, brother?

I don't know.

Be good.

Have you been to Harrison Blackman?

I try to get in every week.

And get up early Sunday morning walking to Harrison along the railroad tracks.

Have Sunday dinner with Aunt Verger or Aunt Ones or sometimes ain't glad.

Do you have a sweetheart brother? I have one. Don't tell mama I told you that she'd have a fad. He's lovely boy. Mr. Davenport can't stand him.

He won't even let him come to the house. He says he's disillusioned. I have to slip out even to see him.

Mr. Davenport found out about it and he was in fury. He wouldn't even speak to me until the morning he left Atlanta.

This is a ring my boyfriend gave him.

He wants to marry me.

He says I'm beautiful. He says I'm pretty enough to be an actor.

He's very handsome too.

He does drink though and he smokes cigarettes, but I told him he'd have to stop both before I married him.

I told him I had a father who was a drunkard and a cigarette fiend and that those habits would kill him.

Do you remember papa?

Sure.

I don't have a picture of him. Do you?

No. I wonder if anyone has a picture of him.

I tell you I can hardly remember what he looks like anymore.

I can hear his voice though. I can remember the way I always used to call me sister and you brother.

You never called you sister or me brother?

Yes he did.

No he didn't. He always called me Horus Jr. and you Lily Dale.

Well then who called me sister and who called you brother?

I called you sister and you called me brother but papa...

What's that?

This is Papa's watch.

It didn't run out. I would fix some day.

Look at how his initials engraved. See?

Where do you get it?

I found it stuffed in a drawer with the house when I came back after y'all had left that time.

Look.

This is Mama's wedding ring.

How do you know?

I'm looking tired.

Just...

To CT from HR.

Yes it does.

I used to have some of Papa's books.

Where are they now?

I don't know.

They just disappeared after I went to work out at the GoTier plantation.

I used to read all the time.

I read newspapers now mostly.

I can't stand reading.

My father doesn't like to read either.

Mr. Davenport says he's never read a book in his entire life and he doesn't intend to.

And once my mom told him about how Papa used to like to read, he said no wonder he drank.

Look, this is my sweetheart.

Isn't it good looking?

He plays baseball on the city team. He's a first-base man.

He's a one-platly.

He's 25.

Mr. Davenport says he's old enough to be my father, but I think a boy should be quite a bit older than a girl, don't you?

Oh, I'd never thought about it one way or the other.

Are you ready?

What are we gonna see?

I don't know, but I'm sure it's gonna be good. It always is.

Isn't this exciting, brother?

I like music best.

We came to hear Gally Kirchee when she sang here and Petarevsky and John McCormick.

I would have loved to have heard him. I love Irish tenors. I heard John see all caught coming on children were going upstairs.

Did John McCormick sing motherfully?

Yes, he did.

So did Chancey Alcott as an encore.

We have a recording of John McCormick singing, don't we, sister?

Yes, we do.

Rilla!

Lily Dale?

Lily Dale?

I don't believe you can for the play, brother.

Yes, I did, when I could understand.

It's probably never seen a play by Shakespeare before, precious, and hard to understand.

He fell asleep twice once he was snoring so loud at the polka.

Mama, what did Papa call me? Did he call me sister? Did he call me Lily Dale?

No, I don't remember.

Well, I think he called me sister, but brother says he called me Lily Dale.

Hey, he called you Lily Dale. Remember that?

All of a time?

I expect so.

He thought that we should all be coba, given names.

How old were you when you married our father?

Oh, 18.

And Horace when I was 19.

How old was our father?

22.

We were all moving around so much after the war.

Look, and go, yes, and Lourie Island.

And back to Harrison.

Well, my papa, when he back his land, he felt his papa been cheated out of.

I think your daddy's people were already there by then.

I'm sure they were.

His brother's ran the newspaper.

He had a lot of office.

He's very handsome.

That's stinkwashed, given as a young man.

Oh, oh, it's like we've fried.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

I didn't know who you were.

What do you want it?

I don't know if it's a froughton or not.

I'll get you a-

No, I'll get you a-

Oh, no, you took a nap.

We got you a letter if we didn't expect you to tomorrow.

I'm so glad you're home.

I missed you so much.

I learned two new pieces while you were gone.

Pete, I was surprised as a party is walking in here this morning.

You could die off from work and decide to pay us a visit.

Hello, sir.

Hello.

Did you have a good time?

I guess so.

How are your people?

All right.

He is mad.

I've only seen him mad once.

I hope never to see that again.

Horace, there's no room for you here now.

Do you stay in there, honey?

I want you to take that train back to Harris.

You go to Bergey.

You tell her what happened.

She'll just let you stay with her, okay?

I don't have any money for the ticket home.

Oh, yeah, I'm so sorry.

I have some money upstairs in my closet.

I'll go get it.

You wait right here.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

How are all our old friends back in Harrison?

All right.

Willie Rosebury left.

Mama just went to get him some money to get back home on.

She sent him $2 to get you.

You're giving him money?

Will, you see Mr. Devon Port.

You're a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

You ashamed to take money from your mother?

Well, when I was your age, I was supporting my mother

and brother and sister for seven years.

Nobody ever gave me anything.

What kind of man you're going to make?

Taking money from a woman at your age?

He doesn't mean that son.

He's not a spade.

He's his house.

Now look, you take this money.

And he's a little extra for a save, which I'm trying to...

Mr. Damford, he's gone.

Listen to my new pieces.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

I'm a grown man.

Please, let it go.

Just be quiet.

I'll swear to you, Eric.

Just be quiet for once.

Look at that eight twos I like.

All right.

I'm not going to play if you're going to read the paper.

I'm not going to read paper.

What do you want?

I forgot my suitcase.

I brought some presents for you all.

Oh, thank you, son. Isn't that pretty?

This is for you, Lilydale.

It's a memory book. It's for school.

I have one of these already.

Anyway, I haven't been to school in four years.

Mr. Damford says I could stay at home and practice the piano and compose music.

She wrote a rag. She calls it the Damford Port rag.

None of a step, Daddy.

Well, Mr. Damford, what did Horace bring you?

Oh, isn't that nice?

It would be a fun sport.

Oh, you can just give it to somebody down in the real world, y'all.

I'll explain it to you.

Horace, when you say vergy and everybody else, you just tell them half of me, would you?

I will.

Thank you, son. Bye again.

Mama, what did you do there?

So, Mr. Damford, what about the rag I composed?

I wanted to surprise him.

I'm sorry, honey.

It was to be his Christmas present. I was going to play it for him on Christmas morning.

You can write me another one for Christmas, honey.

Call that one the Christmas rag. Okay, you just play this one for me now.

All right.

What are you looking at the window for?

What are you looking at the window for?

What?

I said, why are you looking at the window?

I just want to see if your brother made a street call, all right?

You go on playing.

No, I don't want to play in the window.

I'm going to play.

No, I don't want to play unless everybody's going to listen.

I'm listening, honey.

You're not listening if you're looking at the window.

All right.

Now I'm listening.

Here we go.

What is the matter with you, Lily Gader?

A break is wrong.

That's what's wrong with me.

It's a break and wrong.

I love you.

And he loves me.

No, she's still...

I can't help but my heart is breaking.

It's just breaking.

I'm so unhappy and I'm so miserable.

Oh!

Yeah, yeah, come on.

What are you doing?

He's not stopping.

Come on in.

He won't be able to hear the same.

Don't cry now, Lily Gader.

You won't have to send him away.

Just please don't cry.

Will you speak to him?

What about?

About?

About how he's going to reform and about how?

He intends to behave himself from now on.

We all will try to guess so.

We all...

We all...

Come on inside.

Mr. Dan Bort will speak to you now.

Evening folks?

Hello, Will.

I hope you didn't mind a serenade.

No, they're pretty.

One of my favorite songs.

Lily Dale says you object to our scene each other because of my habits.

Well, did Lily Dale tell you that I'm changing my habits?

I've stopped drinking.

I think that's very wise if you will.

You'll never regret it.

No, ma'am, I know that.

I never did drink a whole lot anyway.

What do you call a whole lot?

I saw you drunk three times.

The only three times in my life I was ever drunk.

I said to Lily Dale, wouldn't you know the only times in my life I ever got drunk I had to meet you step-dad.

She is too young for you.

She's 18 years old.

18-year-old girl has no business.

What?

Well, since 19, Mr. Danport, I'll be 19 on my next birthday.

Well...

Well, if you want to come call on her here, all right.

But you're gonna have to sit right here.

She can't leave the house with you until she's 19.

You might so much as smell one drop a liquor on your breath.

You not be allowed back in here ever again.

You, sir?

Now go on so we can get to bed early.

Thank you.

You're the sweetest man in the whole wide world.

You made me so happy.

You will so happy.

What's up, Lane?

Danport, is someone at the door?

Oh, this was a matter.

I took the wrong street car.

By the time I got to the railroad station, the train was gone.

There's no train to Harrison until the morning.

I'm so sorry, son.

Did you hear that, Mr. Danport?

I didn't know there was different street cars.

The one I took ended up in the...

It's a place.

Well, why are you trembling?

Are you sick? You look so pale.

You all right, son?

I don't feel well, Mama.

Oh, my God, you're burning up.

You don't have a lair, are you?

You've been taking that corner, and that panel.

Yes, ma'am, I don't know what's wrong with me.

Where is it?

Mr. Danport.

Danport's horus.

He's fainted.

Yeah, probably. He's gonna die.

I know he's gonna die.

That's just another of my terrible dreams.

I'm always seeing brother dead, and his coffin sometimes...

He's been in a terrible train, and he sometimes has been...

Oh, Drown Day, oh, gosh!

Not gonna die.

He's in a terrible fever. He feels worse.

He's burning up.

He is he dead.

Oh, he's from here, his malaria.

It's just rife, Dan, home.

One thing about malaria, I'm not from the swamps and the bottoms and from Atlanta.

Remember?

Find a spot in the world.

It'd be all right if he stays here tonight.

What else can he do?

He still doesn't lose his job, traveling around the country like this.

He was gonna quit his job.

He said he thought maybe you could find him a job working at the railroad yard.

He better not ask me for a job.

He didn't find his own job. Nobody ever gave me a job.

I don't have to ask anybody for anything. Not one solitary thing.

I don't have too much pride to ask help of anyone.

There's a walking in my heart.

There's a sound which no color in me own.

There's a left in my soul.

Never sounded or known.

There's a place in my memory, my life.

But you feel no other kind of baby.

No one's ever will.

Sure I love the deer still, that shines in your hand.

But the brow that's all for road and a rink with hair.

I kiss the deer fingers so tight, warn for me.

Oh God bless you and keep you.

Father of me.

Hello, Lily Dale. Hello. How come you're here?

How is your brother today?

I think he's all right. He's been sleeping all day long.

That's good for him, I'm sure.

Good day, well, you know, fixing your own breakfast this morning.

I want to get up town for the stores, get too crowded.

But what if brother gets to learn you sick?

Oh, he won't, honey.

He's not a perfect, he was down and he was once asleep now.

Now, I'll be back as soon as I can.

Bye.

You're right, love the deer still,

but that shines in your hand.

I love the deer still, that shines in your hand.

But the brow that's all for road and a rink with hair.

I kiss the deer fingers so tight, warn for me.

Oh God bless you and keep you.

Keep you madder.

Ma pri.

Brother?

Yes.

How do you feel?

Better?

Well, I'm glad to hear that.

Welcome back to the land of the living.

Thank you.

This is the first time in a whole week you've even responded to us at all.

You were so afraid for me, brother.

We thought we were going to lose you.

What's that sick?

Sick.

I guess you were sick.

At the point of death, finally, two weeks out of your head the whole time talking.

The wildest kind of nonsense.

You thought Mr. Damford had a butcher knife and was trying to kill you.

He's trying to slip my throat, please don't let him slip my throat.

I tell you it was awful.

There's good come from it though.

You know what happened?

The next night, Bill came to call and he made himself so helpful that Mama and Mr. Damford fell in love with him and he's been invited over every night to supper.

And when Mr. Damford found out that Will had lost his job, he took him down to the railroad yard and got him a job working there.

Isn't that thrilling?

Where am I?

What brother?

Where am I?

Where are you?

Heavens, brother, don't scare me that way.

You're in Houston. Don't you know where you are?

How did I get here?

How did you get here on the train?

How long have I been here?

Two weeks. You've been sick the whole time.

Don't you remember? I had to go to my girlfriends to practice my music.

Have I been baptized?

What, honey?

Have I been baptized?

No brother, I don't know.

Have you been baptized?

I don't know that either.

What makes you ask a question like that at a time like this?

Is Mama here?

No. She went to the store. She's making me a ball gown.

Will's taking me to dance next week.

Would you like some music to cheer you up?

I've just gone crazy over rags.

I wrote the Damford rag for Mr. Damford.

And the Willie rag for Will.

And now I'm working on the Willie rag,

which I'm dedicating to myself.

Oh!

He's feeling much better now.

Oh! I'm so happy to hear that.

He doesn't remember a thing that's happened to him,

but he's talking some sense now.

Well, let it go. I had to go to four stores before I found the right fabric

and padded for your dress. Took me forever.

Yeah. You all see what I got?

Of course I certainly do. I'm so excited.

I hope you like it.

Yeah.

Oh.

Oh.

It's beautiful.

Isn't it beautiful, brother?

Yes.

So happy to hear that you were feeling better.

Did you get many nourishment in the day?

No. He just woke up.

Would you like some broth, son? I bet you would.

I'm going to get you some broth. You've got to get that strength back.

Have I been baptized, mama?

Oh.

Well, no. You haven't.

What made you ask me a question like that?

I met this lady.

She said I was in mortal danger if I wasn't baptized.

I thought for sure I was going to die,

I was going to die without being baptized.

Well, you didn't die.

Was I baptized, mama?

No.

How come we were baptized?

Well, every time I started to get you baptized,

when you were a baby, then...

Well, something prevented me from doing it.

I mean, I got sick, and you got sick, and your father.

And then...

Oh, no, trouble started.

I just never got ran to it.

Well, look his home.

How's the young man feel?

Yeah, I think he's going to live now.

He's strongest in ox.

You tell him I had to wrestle with him to keep him on his bed?

He thought the peat here was trying to kill him.

How's work?

Fine. I like it better every day.

I think they like me, too, don't they, peat?

Oh, yes they do.

They said today he was good at working as they ever seen.

Now, is it a day off? Why don't you show well?

That fabric I got for the dress.

Yeah, that is mighty good looking.

I'm going to have the prettiest and best dress girl in the ball.

See if he does, isn't it, Freddie?

Sure is.

Young man, you better get well and come go with us.

I'm going back tomorrow.

No sign.

No, I'm going to.

First, I'm going to get dressed and get baptized.

I'm going to find me a preacher.

I'm dirty and I want to be washed clean.

He's delirious again.

Come on, Florence.

Don't come near me.

I think he's going to give me a hug.

I'm just trying to kill him before I get a baptized.

I think he's going to get on an act.

Just to get us to keep him here.

So you can get free room and bowl.

Why would anybody do that?

He's sick and you know he's sick.

He's going to be ashamed of yourself being.

You know he lost his job and Glenn Flore?

He did lose his job.

He just laid off temporarily.

What about my job?

Shh.

No, it's okay.

Don't get excited.

Just touch.

What about that?

We'll talk about that another time.

What about my job?

I don't have my job in Glenn Flore.

Brother, there's been a terrible fire in Glenn Flore.

Mr. Galbra's store burned down.

Oh my God.

Mr. Galbra said we heard he was going to rebuild his store.

And then you were going to have to get your own job back there.

Okay.

Now, just rest, honey.

Yes, please.

Thank you for having me.

Thank you.

I'll see you in a second.

Bye.

Take care.

See you soon.

Bye.

Bye.

Take care.

I'm going to get a drink.

Yes, thank you.

I'll see you later.

Bye.

Hurt her feelings,

because I had never returned the call.

The Fergie says,

oh, I'm sure she's always working.

Oh, says Merdle, what does she do?

Well, says Fergie, she takes you in a sewing.

Oh, well, heavens, Merdle, heavens.

Well, heavens, what says Fergie?

She's just as poor as you were when you lived here.

She just didn't marry Rich Husband.

Ha, ha, ha, ha,

Fergie said that, shut her up.

Oh, I like gals and papers so much.

I don't know, I've always loved gals to me, huh?

Oh, no.

I didn't know that.

Oh, yeah.

Poppy used to talk about it sometimes.

You know, when he was growing up there as a boy.

Oh, honey.

He didn't grow up there.

No, he's about two years old when I was over.

His daddy was killed.

And Mama had to go to Tyler and start that morning here.

Mama, will Keter tells me that for $50,

you can go to a business school here in Houston?

I think I'm going to do it.

Where would you stay?

Well, honey.

I'd like nothing better than to ask you to stay here.

But I can't.

You understand?

No room.

We made room while you were sick.

No, I know.

I wasn't expecting to stay here.

Well, where would you get the money to pay for all this?

I'll try and borrow it.

I can't help you sign your own thing.

I wasn't going to ask you, Mama.

Well, where would you get the money?

I thought I'd ask Aunt Vergie or try the bank.

What if you couldn't borrow it?

Then I can't go.

Why do you want to study so much, son?

I don't want to clerk in a drug good store all my life.

I thought if I had a business course,

I might have a few more opportunities.

I'd say.

Well, I could do this much.

I couldn't make sure you had a good breakfast every day.

Mr. Tappin' Port goes to work about 5, 5, 30.

If you came here about 6, 6, 30, make sure you had a good

hard breakfast.

You have a girl, son.

I go with several.

No particular one.

I've been seeing quite a bit of Dolly Parker.

She lives at the Garrett's.

They have a piano.

And there's always lots of young people over there.

And Rosa Garrett has a lovely voice.

It's Dolly pretty, honey.

Yes, ma'am, she's pretty.

And Rosa?

Well, Rosa has a very nice disposition.

And like I say, her mother and father

are always very kind and hospitable.

They still as poor as church mass.

Yes, ma'am, I guess so.

But there's always a hammer at chicken or a turkey

on the table.

And sometimes they invite as many as 12 or 14

of us to stay for dinner.

I guess you'll be thinking about getting married soon.

I suppose so.

Well, you been thinking about it?

Mom, I can't think of getting married.

I don't even have a job.

And I think that's very sensible to you.

I wish I'd been sensible that when I married your father.

Hope your sister will be.

Oh.

Oh.

How do I look?

She's beautiful, like a picture.

How do I look, brother?

You're a pretty sister.

Thank you.

I feel pretty.

I thought that just now as I looked at myself in the mirror,

not a girl with that ball.

I don't care how rich they are to have a dress.

That's pretty as mine.

Thank you.

Oh, sugar.

Where's Mr. Danboard?

Don't want him to see me.

Well, he's out in the garden.

I'll go get it in.

Hey.

Any day I'll all dress now.

She want you to come in and see you.

Well, it's got to be.

She had to hold that lantern up there

because she'd better let them do it.

I was thinking lying on the couch here this afternoon.

Lily Dale.

Papa used to sing a song to the two of us called Lily Dale.

Do you remember how it went?

No.

And I don't want to.

You always want to talk about the past.

That's why I love Will.

He only wants to talk about the future.

What he's going to do with his life,

how much he's going to accomplish.

Why do you always want to talk about the past?

What Papa did or didn't do?

I don't care what he called me.

All I know is he smoked cigarettes like a fiend

and was a drunkard and broke my mother's heart

and died and left a penniless to go out in the world

to work to support two children.

No one supported me since I was 12 years old.

Well, she supported me.

And she's the only one I want to talk about.

Except Mr. Davenport had been more to me

than a real father could have been.

What is the matter with you?

Why have you turned your face away?

I thought you were going to lie there forever on that couch.

You should make yourself get dressed now every day

and start walking around the block, at least.

Why are you so sad, brother?

Why are you always so sad?

It's not fair.

Turn around and look at me.

I can't help it if I have a happy disposition and you don't.

Brother, I want to be close.

Let's be close, please.

We're not close as a brother and sister should be.

Why should I be able to come to you with my troubles?

And I can't.

Sister, I feel close to you.

Do you?

Yes.

And you're not jealous of me?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I've never been jealous of you in my whole life.

I'm relieved to hear that.

I thought you were jealous of me because Mr. Davenport

spoils me and prefers me to you.

But that's only natural brother that he would.

You're stranger to him, really.

I was raised up here in the house with him.

He's always been so sweet and considerate to me, brother.

I remember when Mama decided to marry him.

He took me in his arms and he told me

he was going to be a daddy to me.

And he has.

He certainly has.

You must love him for that.

Say you do.

I can't stand him.

Don't say that.

I think I'm thinking lying here on this couch.

Do you think I don't choke on every piece of his food

that I eat?

I think how can I get well eating the food of a man I despise?

What's up?

Well, stop it.

I despise him.

I would never have come here if I were to thought he would come here.

And I would have gotten sick.

And then if his mind stops, I despise him.

I despise him.

If I had the strength, I would get up and walk across this room

right now.

And please, I believe you're right now.

Hell, Lilydale, be right here.

All right.

Horace.

Horace.

Horace.

Lilydale.

Lilydale.

Lilydale, give us a step and walk quick out in the yard.

Your brother's phone is hurt.

All right.

And get those spellings off.

Horace.

Pete, Mama needs you.

Brother Spainted again.

What?

What's happening now?

I don't know.

I came in just found him on the floor.

Yeah.

You're there.

I despise him.

What?

I despise him.

Lilydale.

I despise him.

Did you do it on your spoil?

Very soon.

When you're talking about the sword.

Pete, Mr. Dattenbordy says he hates and despises him.

Don't say that.

He doesn't mean that.

Never.

Don't repeat something that someone says when they're out of their mind.

He was not out of his mind.

He's ruined this night for me by his hate.

What do you hate?

My journey.

Don't ruin this evening of hers.

She said something a little happiness in her life.

Hello, young lady.

How do you feel?

Well, come on and help me.

Oh, it's the fall.

I need to get him back on the couch.

Come on.

Come on, boy.

Come on.

Where'd she think you were going?

There.

There.

Oh.

There.

Oh.

There.

You feel embedded, honey?

It's me.

It's quite a scam.

It's me.

You were delirious.

You can't look at Mr. Dattenbordy.

You can't see how you despise him.

But he knew you were delirious.

Then it'd be a word of it.

Oh.

Well, where's my girl?

I thought she'd be all dressed and waiting.

Now she walks.

Why?

Yeah.

Her brother fell down and she got all nervous and upset.

And there's Ryan out of the room.

I'll go get her.

You really don't tell you about my new job?

I'm leaving the railroads.

I'm going into the produce business.

A great new company that she started up.

They got the rights to handle some great new products here in this area.

Now, admiration coffee.

That's one they advertise is the cup of so-and-hospitality.

And, uh...

I say, you need a job.

You speak to Pete about getting my job for you out of the railroads.

Anyone can do it.

Really do.

You'll be down in a minute.

Plenty of time.

Pete, plenty of time.

I just had a great idea.

What about horse for my job at the yards?

No, it was already taken.

It was filled this afternoon.

Oh, well, it's too bad.

We just weren't on the ball. Where we peed?

Why don't we think about it sooner?

Say, look here.

This sight was worth waiting for.

My, my.

You are beautiful.

Thank you, Will.

Mama made the dress.

And it is something. Yes, it is.

Couldn't she look gorgeous, Pete?

Yes, she does.

Shoot.

She'll be the prettiest girl there.

I'll tell you that.

What do you think of your sister, horse?

And put a waltz on the big troller.

Pete, Lily Dale and I will show you the Texas castles.

Irene and Vernon.

I don't feel like it. We don't have a headache.

A headache?

Well, get over it.

No headaches are allowed on this night.

We're gonna dance all night.

How is that?

You do make a beautiful couple.

And you're both wonderful dancers.

Now, when you go to bring a home.

Don't wait up for us.

Oh, I'll always do.

I don't shut my eyes until she's home.

Don't you trust me, lady?

Don't you trust me to take care of your daughter?

I trust you, Will. You know that.

You go to sleep.

No, I don't shut my eyes until she's in the house.

What are you gonna do when she's married not living here anymore?

Then I can't help it. She's someone else's responsibility.

What if we're out and tell Don?

Then I won't sleep until Don.

For your teasing about Don, you'll bring a home by 12.

Or one?

12.

All right. 12.30.

Let's go, Princess.

Yeah.

Have a look.

Yeah. Have a wonderful time.

Both of you?

Thank you, Mama.

Good night, honey.

Good night. Good night, Pete.

No.

Night Pete, don't take any wooden neckles.

No, try not to. Take care of it, will you?

I will.

Not for that.

Don't forget to tell.

Not young man, you take care of yourself.

She sure look pretty, didn't she?

Yes.

Are you all right?

Yes.

I told Mr. Downport, whatever you said to him just now, you were delirious.

I wasn't delirious, Mama.

I knew what I was saying.

I'm leaving here tomorrow, Mama.

How can you do that?

You can't even get yourself across the floor.

I'm going if I have to crawl out of here.

I'm going to ask Will to come and help me out of here.

I'm going to have a rest of me on the train.

Or I'll make it myself.

I don't want you to do that now.

I'm going, Mama.

Nothing will keep me here for nothing.

Where will you go?

You haven't got a job. What you do?

I'll go to Aunt Ruggie.

She'll nurse me.

I want to nurse you.

I want to do something for you.

Please let me.

Well, anyway, if you decide to come back and study at that business course, I hope that you'll remember to come over here and have a good breakfast in the morning.

Come on, your time. I'll just let you rest.

Mama, yes, son.

Do you remember the song called Lillie Dale?

The one Papa always sang his sister?

Well, let's see now.

I think you'll remember him saying it, but I can't remember how it goes.

Try to remember it, Mom.

Why, honey?

Why?

Because I want to remember it.

All right, I'll try. I'll certainly try.

Right now.

Yes.

I just can't.

But I'll keep on trying.

I think we made it.

I think we're over there.

I have to go in.

No.

Are you going to tell your mom what that report from the paper said to you?

I don't remember what they say.

Did you don't?

I think you said you were the most beautiful dancer of the whole dance.

I think he said I was the most graceful dancer that I've ever seen.

I thought you forgot what he said.

You're not there yet. Have a home, my 12th.

What's your mother doing?

Wonderful.

What were you praying?

Oh, my goodness.

What do you think of that?

Well, that's beautiful.

What do you think it cost me?

I have no idea.

Plenty. But I thought nothing is too much for my sweetheart.

Oh, wasn't me?

Oh, it means we're engaged.

I've asked you to marry me.

Darling.

You're too young to get married.

Well, please believe me. She's too young.

I've nothing, absolutely nothing in the world against you. You're going to believe that.

What's the matter with you?

I'm getting married tomorrow.

I have some sense, you know.

I'm making my plans.

I'm going to work hard for a year.

Save my money.

Do you have any objections to that plan?

I guess not.

Did you promise me you were here?

Well, I'm not making any promises.

I might want to be married tomorrow.

Please, please, please be serious.

Oh, I'm serious.

Well, wait as long as you want us to.

What we have.

What do you do?

She'll be all right.

She's been a little upset all evening.

I think he's being here gets her upset.

If she said he'd told me to her tonight.

No, I don't know what all went on.

He's upset too. He told me.

He wants you to take him to the station tomorrow. He wants to go home.

I just don't think he's strong enough to make it on his own.

I have to wait until he's determined to go home.

I'm sorry, Will.

How about you think I'm crazy?

I just think you're sweet, Bernie.

Can I kiss a good night?

We're engaged.

All right.

Good night.

Night, Will.

Matt and Ms. Karella?

Well, he's a good boy.

Unbow, please, for weak.

Yeah.

We better get to bed.

Mama.

What do they do to you when you married?

Make your head children.

Oh, don't ask me such questions this time and night.

Let the day off.

The vineyard says your husband does terrible things to you.

Does he?

He's not so terrible.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

He's not so terrible.

What is it?

It's just what a husband does to a wife when they're married.

That's all.

Well, you'll find out when you're married.

Does it hurt?

I've heard some people say that it hurts, but never hurt me.

Does it hurt to have children?

Yes, and I'm afraid to go.

I never have to go through that.

Well, once they have children.

Well, then he is a fool.

And don't you ever let him talk you into it.

Women die in job, or something.

Oh, the time.

Every minute of the hour, when I had you and your brother

operate to God that I will die.

What?

Because it hurts so much.

I was in terror the entire time.

You said dance over?

Oh, honey, I'm sorry.

What do you want?

Go back to sleep.

I want to dance with Lidel.

It was very nice.

Lidel is a gaze to be married.

Show your brother your ring.

It cost $125.

How do you know?

Will tell me.

He paid cash for it.

You know, Papa did sing Lidel to you when you were a girl.

And you got your name from that song.

Mama told me.

I don't care whether you're right or not.

It doesn't mean a thing to me one way or the other.

Mama, I don't remember how the song goes.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

You.

That's it. That's how it goes.

You'll have to learn it and teach it to your children, Lidel.

I'm not going to have children.

You know.

Why?

Because.

Anyway, if I did have children, I wouldn't sing them that song.

Why?

Because I want to forget everything that happened back then.

Everything.

And I want you to quit talking to me about it.

Every time I feel the least bit good, you begin on all that.

What did Papa call us?

What did he sing? Did Papa do this? Did Papa do that?

I don't care about him.

How many times I have to tell you that.

I don't care if I ever hear his name again.

Mr. Davenport is my father. He's the only one I want.

You have no father, but that's not my fault.

I have one, the only one I want.

She doesn't mean that sign, you know.

She's just all excited about the dance,

getting engaged and everything.

I don't care, Mama, if that's how she feels.

Ors.

No, maybe you shouldn't talk so much about your Papa.

Mr. Davenport is very sensitive.

I don't think he likes it much.

I don't talk to him about my father. I wouldn't thank you.

Let me tell you something else.

Mama didn't love Papa. She loves Mr. Davenport

because he's been good to her and to me.

So don't let me ever hear you say another word again.

So because if you do, I'll tell him exactly what you said

and hook the road you out of this house and never let you in here again.

Drops at me and Mama. Never, never, never, never.

You'll never get the chance to throw me out.

I'm getting on my clothes, but I'm getting out of here.

I'm getting out of here. I can't leave now.

I just can't. And I'm going to leave.

If I have to crawl out of here on my hands and on my knees.

All right.

Mama.

I'm so sorry, brother.

I didn't mean a word of the terrible things.

I said, not a one.

I don't know what gets into me sometimes, brother.

I have a terrible disposition.

Terrible disposition. It's wrong, but I'll come and help with me.

But please, please forgive me, please.

Please, I love to Papa.

But he made it.

Just as much as you did, but it hurts me so much to talk about it.

And it scares me too. You know, don't have it scares me.

Sometimes it's nice.

I can hear Papa.

He coughed and struggling to breathe.

I can hear Steve.

And I didn't mean what I said about you leaving.

I want you to stay until you're all well and strong again.

Because you're the only brother I am.

Sometimes it's nice.

I think I can see you dead.

And then you're coughing.

And I cry in my dreams.

I can't walk.

And I'm really crying too.

Because my crying wakes me up.

I'm saying to myself, the brother's alive.

He's not dead at all.

That dream was still.

I just feel so miserable.

I was just laughing.

I'm a horrible friend.

Sometimes Mama hears me.

And she comes in and she's a little bit there while you're crying.

And I say, because I'm wrapping in the brother's diet.

Damn.

Damn.

Come on.

I know that your brother forgives you.

He's just being with me right now.

It's a fair week.

We can't talk much now.

We just better get Mr. Devilmore.

Don't you call him.

I don't want him to help me.

I don't want him to help me.

I don't want him.

You touch me.

I'm going to touch my stuff.

The hell's going on out here.

Mr. Devilmore, our sister's still dead, but he's all right.

What time is it?

It's more than an hour.

Get to bed, my god.

I have to be up at five, you know?

I have to work for a living.

We just get up here.

We'll get you a rest.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It despises him.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Go to the room.

Go to the room.

Go to the room.

Go to the room.

Your break is dead.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

Shhh.

We all.

Baby, self.

Mom and brother just went for a short walk.

Sit down.

Baby, self.

We all.

I promise to marry me.

I promise to marry you.

A year from now.

I won't wait a year.

Well, you promised mom you would.

Why are you going back on your word?

Why are you doing that?

I quit looking at me that way.

You make me very nervous.

Now go sit down in that chair over there.

Or I'm going to go find mom and I'm going to tell it that you're not behaving like a gentleman.

This is how Janon behaves.

Yes.

Thank you.

What's wrong with you?

Nothing's wrong with me.

Just be quiet and let me practice.

What?

Nothing's wrong with me.

Just be quiet and let me practice.

What?

What?

Tell me, Dan.

What?

Tell me, he's struggling you.

I don't know, Will.

I'm just, I'm just very nervous.

I think it's brother's being here.

You don't want to be over here leaving tomorrow.

I must say it will be a relief to have the house back to ourselves again.

Brother just doesn't fit in.

We all try, but he just doesn't fit in.

Now you fit in.

Isn't that funny?

You're here for five minutes and you cheer everybody up.

And Mr. Davin Hort starts to talk like a normal human being again.

But once you leave, well, silent and gloomy and unhappy.

What's your name?

Harris, how you feeling?

You all go back now.

Just remember.

Come on honey.

My brother can last night.

You remember he was dead?

Only this time I didn't cry.

I said a terrible thing.

I said, it's about time.

Mama said, we'll bury him here in the family plot in Houston.

No, we won't. I said, I won't have him very next to you.

And Mr. Davin Hort and me.

I want to bury with his father where belongs.

Isn't that a terrible thing for a sister to have a dream like that about a brother?

Found eight something that didn't agree with you for several.

Will?

What?

Look away, I want to ask you something.

Where shall I look?

Anywhere, away from me.

I don't want to get married.

Why?

Don't look at me please.

Why?

Because you hurt me if you do.

How I hurt you?

You know.

What?

What makes you think I'll hurt you?

Who told you I would?

Sister Douglas.

She's a fool.

I asked Mama about it too.

What did she say?

She said, I'll tell you something.

What did she say?

She said, she didn't want to talk about it.

She said Papa didn't hurt her but some women told her that they were her by their husbands.

I don't know, I don't want to hurt you.

How do you know?

I just do.

Oh really, what's the matter?

I'm scared, Will.

I want to marry but I'm scared too.

I'm scared, I'm going to have a baby.

I know it hurts when you do.

I'm going to die while I'm having it.

Mama says it's the worst pain in the world.

Don't you want to have children?

I do but I'm scared too.

I'm scared of the terrible pain and I'm not dying.

You don't have family.

You mean you can be married and not have children?

Yes.

How?

There are ways.

You're married for ten years now and I have no children.

What are you saying, Will?

You're saying you're a married.

I'm not that too old, Will.

No, your mom is only 40. She can still have a child if she wanted to.

Oh my god, I'm waiting.

I wish you wouldn't tell me things like that.

I know it's the kind of terrible dreams I'm going to start having now.

Honey, I only told you so you can understand.

Married people don't always have to have children if they don't want to.

I mean, I want to but I'm scared too.

Well then we'll never have them.

You promise me?

I promise.

Do you have any Q-Habby?

Yes, it does.

I am so sweet.

You're the sweetest thing in the whole world.

My sweetest thing.

What's going on?

Mr. Devon, I'm nervous enough without you coming in here and scaring me this way.

What do you mean, you're scared of your little girl? Where's your mom?

She took brother for a walk to help him get his strength back.

Yeah, we're going to lose your old boy tomorrow.

Uncle Albert's coming for him.

What time's he leaving?

2.30 a.k.a.

That is Valverda and get into a gambling game.

They're full of sin Albert.

They're a professional gambling Houston knows him.

He has to go back. He's got a store now, you know.

That's never stopped here from gambling.

No job, no his wife, his children.

I gave him six months. He'd be gone.

He'd be clerked for someone else again.

Did you have a nice walk?

Slow.

Are you having a job?

Yes, clerking for Uncle and Harrison.

He's going to stay with us, Mr. Vergie.

De-Temperoni.

He's going to stay with us.

He's going to stay with us, Mr. Vergie.

De-Temperoni, he gets a strength back.

She's a wonderful cook and she loves him.

Is she having a children room?

Just the one.

A little girl.

Her husband said after seeing what she went through to have just that one,

they could drag him around the courthouse square before he'd let her go through that again.

Your hungry peep.

Feet all his hungry.

Never do a town he wouldn't.

You do pretty well yourself, Will. You're going to stay with supper.

No, man. I'm afraid I ain't got a male over here. You'll send me a board bill.

Come on, now. Stay for supper.

All right. You don't want to twist my arm all the time.

Would you play Lillidael for me?

I don't know. Lillidael, how can I play it for you?

I'll sing it for you. Maybe you can play it then.

All right, I'll try.

Puzzle call still night and the moon's pale light shone soft or hill and veil.

When friends, you with grief stood around the deathhead of my poor lost willy dayl.

Lillidael, sweet little dayl, dear little dayl.

Now the wild rose by suns for a little green grape in the shade of the flower reveal.

You certainly have a sweet voice, son.

Can you play it now, sister?

I don't want to. I want to play my classical piece.

Go ahead, honey. Play your classical piece.

I don't want to play it if you don't want me to play.

We want you to, don't we, Pete?

Yeah. Do you have a lot of runs in it?

Yes.

I was lovin' to when he has a lot of runs. Play it for us.

No, Will doesn't want to hear it. He wants me to play rags.

No, I want to play your classical piece.

How about you, brother?

I'm sure I want to hear it.

It's the last chance you'll get to hear it.

Are you sure now?

Yes, I'm sure.

I'm sure.

I'm sure.

I'm sure.

I'm sure.

I don't believe I'll step in back and have the cigar in the smokey section.

Yes, sir.

Do you care to join me? I believe I have an extra.

I don't think we're smoking.

I have some too in the back here, look.

Yes, sir. Thank you.

Will.

I think there's a poker game going on back there and I think I'll get in there.

I feel very lucky today.

Yes, sir.

I know you won't tell my wife a virgin about this.

No, sir.

Good boy, Will.

Well, there's never seen very happy in my entire life.

Was he ever happy?

I think so.

I hope so.

He's determined, that's for sure.

He took Will aside and asked him to stop by Gog and to pick up the sheet music for me to play for him.

I'm glad he got a chance to hear at least once for you there.

Do you think it's a pretty piece?

Yeah, I think it's very sweet.

Do you think the girl on the cover looks like me?

No, I guess she does.

I'm prettier though, don't you think?

Yes, I do.

Do you think I'm beautiful?

Yes.

I do.

Will says I'm beautiful enough to be in motion pictures.

I hope he's sincere when he says it.

I hope I'm sure he is.

Will says...

You and Mr. Davenport.

If you want it.

Mr. Davenport, do you...

Good boy, honey.

Nothing.

I forgot what I was going to ask.

Excuse me.

Why'd you the young man that I met on the way to Houston three weeks ago?

I just met a boy I thought so.

Was that Mr. Albert Thornton of Harrison who was sitting with you?

I just met him.

I thought so.

He's my uncle.

Of course.

He was a terrible son.

Have a spill in malaria?

I've had a spell of something pretty sick.

Well, you still look sick to me.

May I sit and visit with you, why?

I don't know why I'm not down myself.

As much as I have to bear.

Mr. Coons is sick again, you know?

No, yes.

Lost his job, of course.

We have to move again.

I've been in Houston where he's starting another keely cure.

He swears this is the last time this will happen.

What has to become of us, Mr. Coons, I said?

I am uneducated. I can't work.

You get sick and can't keep a job.

Of course, you understand what kind of sickness I'm talking about.

He just can't seem to leave you alone.

Did you love Papa when you married him?

Yes, I did.

At least I thought I did.

Who did you love most?

Papa, Mr. Dan board.

Mr. Dan board is a very good man.

I know.

I know.

He's been very good to me.

He just doesn't seem like your brother.

I wish that would change.

Well, that doesn't like him either.

Who do you love most, me or brother?

I love you both, honey.

You love me most.

I love you both.

I think you love me most.

Where are you, girl?

I think you need me more.

I'm never going to leave you and you're never going to leave me.

Oh, honey.

You'll long get married.

And then you're going to have to live with your husband.

Why can't we all move in here with us?

No, that wouldn't be practical.

That's what we all says, too.

Well, well, then we'll just move into the house next door.

And if we can't do that, then just as close as we can.

Well, how did you find your mother?

She's well.

And your sister?

Just fine.

I bet they were glad to see you and sorry to see you go.

Did you ask your mom about your baptism?

Yes, ma'am.

I haven't been.

Mercy.

Sick as you look, I wouldn't put it off any longer.

Oh, it would be terrible if you died without being baptized.

How would you explain that to your maker?

Pray for me, Mrs. Conson.

What would you like me to pray about?

That you live until you're baptized?

No, ma'am.

Just pray for me and my mother and my sister.

Oh, right.

I will.

I don't know your sister and your mother, but I'll be glad to include them in my prayers.

Now, Mrs. Conson, pray for us now.

It's very moment.

I certainly so.

Father, I'm turning to you on this train.

I turn to you now and ask you to forgive our sins.

And you're blessing us.

My mother and my sister and me, pray for us, Mrs. Conson.

Pray for us.

Give me time, son.

I'm getting to you all.

Father, what is your mother's name?

Corrella and your sister?

Louder.

Father, I have been asked to remember in my prayers this young man, Horace,

and his dear mother, Corrella, and his sister Lillidaeal.

Father of mercy, father of goodness, father of forgiveness.

Father of forgiveness and the moon's bell,

I've shown so to be and be.

Lillidaeal married Wilkettas soon afterwards.

I married and had my own family.

I saw my mother insist a once in a while afterwards in Harrison,

but I'd never visited them again in Houston.

I lived with my family, dear, dear, dear.

Now the wild rose blossoms, flower that's all green grey,

and is the dream in the flowery bay.
