The Tender Flame (2012)
“After the first shock of seeing their son standing before them alive, they joyously welcomed him home.
While Grant ate his mother’s cooking, he told his parents about his wounding, capture, and imprisonment. Scott and Marjorie listened as their son told of his escape along with his six fellow prisoners. After reporting in at Fort McHenry, he had come directly to Montgomery Village.
The Smiths were relieved when Grant said he knew about Lydia. When he told them he didn’t want to know where Lydia... and her husband were living and that he’d asked Lydia’s parents not to let her know that he was still alive, Scott and Marjorie agreed that it was best to leave well enough alone.
Marjorie told Grant that both his sisters were married now and living in other states. When Grant had finally been caught up on all the family news, he told his parents he could spend a couple of weeks with them before reporting back to Fort McHenry. Marjorie teased that she could fatten him up some in that much time.MoreLess
