Eyes of Silver, Eyes of Gold
“After that first trip to town they were always careful to purchase only necessary supplies, but even so his small supply of cash was down to a few dollars. Adding in Anne’s Grenerton money, something he was dead set against doing, would only put off the inevitable for a few more weeks. He found himself almost as against asking Frank for a loan as Anne was. It had never bothered him before.He accepted that Frank and Ephraim alone had inherited the Bennett Ranch. His father had written his will t...hat way to protect against losing land to either of the girls’ husbands or because of Cord’s and Marie’s Indian blood.It was understood in the family, though, that the ranch belonged to them all. Ranch profits supported Ephraim and Martha in the early years before Eph’s law practice began to pay, and when Hannah’s husband turned increasingly to drink, ranch money kept her and her children. Marie, of course, walked away, and Cord felt that by running horses on part of the land, he had his share.MoreLess
