Brotherhood of the Broadax: Wyoming Tie Hacks

Basically they were young men when they left the Scandinavian area and coming hoping to earn their fortune in America you learn to get along with the people that you had to work with and you learn to work the most difficult part of a whole droid was getting that 15 miles through what we call the Kenyan West Bank where. People see the whole entire stack down river without any trucks or anything yeah. How did they get. It was one of the better job of a lifetime for us. Hello I'm Joe Brandel around the turn of the century when Americans were still pushing west in the open spaces a vast new network a railroad move people

and commerce across the continent to lay the tracks and maintain them. It needed wooden ties to support the rails. Millions of them wherever the railroads went. The builders sought pine and Cypress and other big trees in the nearby forests the southern Appalachians the Mississippi Valley and in the west where the rails across the treeless plains they looked the white mountains forest. They look to the rivers to bring the hewn timbers down in huge springtime tide drives. Beginning in 1868 they brought ties from Sherman mountain down the Laramie river and then further west down the Medicine Bow River. Before long Thai camps were springing up across the state encampment Saratoga to the west below Evanston. And as far north as Sheridan but the biggest production would come from the high cost of the apse Roka and Wind River Mountains. It was here between 1942 and 1946 that time has produced over 10 million times. The railroads were binding a young

nation together and the work was being done by newcomers and the job felt the Wyoming tie and timber company. Martin Olson who was the superintendent of the company he came from Norway where he had had his start in a number of timber operations. He obviously had to have been one of the smartest men in the world as far as I can tell. To have to have fought up and figured out how to how to get those times out of the woods. Olson and his man face two important task of transforming the green timber and the railroad ties and then getting those ties out of the wilderness and downstream to the railroad for the first part of that job. The company built its headquarters high in the Wind River Mountains. Then they brought in skilled woodsmen from the old country men who could live in rugged conditions

work through the harsh winter and hand new ties with the products modern machinery has replaced the man who cut the trees in those days. But 100 years ago swinging the broad axe was both a skill and an art. Often they work from daylight to dark. They were paid by the piece. The more times you made the more wages you earn. It was just that simple. How hard was the work. Let's watch Ken Miller. And this looks like it would be a good trade we'll get we can get several times out of this one. It's next thing we have to do is score the log on both sides. I'll be

hitting the top with the first swing underneath with a second swing so when I come with the broad ax I can use that exactly perpendicular to make a smooth smooth surface as possible. And on the top on the bottom. Move forward four to six inches top bottom as you move toward the base of the tree. You have to go deeper. So when you're done the time is still a little over seven inches. If you did it all time shape you go down one side and then the other to stop and bring on a broad X one side is completely completely flat.

There's no no angles no arcs no way that just completely flat. And that's a side that goes to the tree to make the shape of it as smooth as possible. Now the other side you can see it's wedged out and as it goes in behind all these little chips that are hanging on there where it was scored then it just pops those off. Sometimes it takes off just a little bit of time sometimes it goes you know quite a ways. Now this way you have to be careful where you're toast sticks out like a stick out here and now you have five six seven pounds come against it with some force off goes into your shoe and your toes. And that's where three Toli came in. OK the next step after both sides are pretty much smoothed out

is to peel the bark off the top and the bottom so we'll start with the top. And this is a tool called the speired which is this extra large would chisel is what it does. And with this being a green tree bark peels off you get right under the bark peels off easy. OK the next step will be to measure off the ties to eight foot lengths and then cut them with this. With this one man saw OK the next step is roll the tie over

so we can peel the other side. Once he links them it's not so hard to do that. The tool I'm using here is called Can't hurt to try. He usually worked all winter and shovel snow and show round round trees. It was hard going. He really had to work hard for their wages. I would guess a hundred fifty men around I and not guarding the teamsters I helped and the clergy. And he was a Teamster but he didn't hire any hall and so he went to

chop and I got that guy. He never stopped him. Yes. Well Frayling and lamming and corn and trees and I worked very hard and really saw and I think we got 48 48. I mean Halprin is damn LMM good day. Well of myself. I got eight times or ten times I was doing pretty good. I was fairly young and learning but most don't cut it between 20 and 30 times a day. Anyway word you wouldn't send it. I wish I would at 19 start to 30 or 31 cents a piece if I remember right.

I think I made eight ten a day maybe what you were. That was pretty good morning very harsh days. Chris. When I started work I was working for a dollar a day on a ranch for a number a year. Alford Olson that he was a time inspector while he waited all the time as he went around from strip to strip and they knew he know who strip that was you counted them ties out to that fellow I had that strip. Turn that into trigo. They marked whatever tires you had for that. Usually every month and so when they guy like you ordered to go to town have some money why he went to trigo or got whatever he wanted 15 20 or 50 dollars or what

the features or a company usually comfort a man. The Teamsters had two or three teams. There you see 12 14 16 hundred pound horses. That's the way they moved the tyres down to the landing where they would go gone and drive them up their big warm whereas all the way up from the head of the flume way up there toward the south for them tired like you see pictures in the story on the wall with my hat. The important part of our history is because a Wyoming Public Television's commitment to local programming you're able to watch and enjoy this program. So I hope you'll take a moment and call in your pledges support to while we Public Television help us continue the tradition of great local programming. Many of the Thai hacks had come from Europe and come to stay along with their

families who joined them in the high country. It was at a time of immigration into the United States. Many of them had come to this country leaving their wife for a child overseas and they were all trying to save enough money to send for their family. My dad had come when I was just a baby. He came to an aunt in North Dakota. And he was thinking that life would be much easier in this country because the depression had started in Norway. But when he came here the depression. Went. Full force also. So it took him 10 years. To save money to bring us over here. And so as far as meeting my dad he was a stranger.

I remember him telling me that when and when she and her mother arrived they couldn't understand their father. He had learned to speak English. In the meantime and it was sort of a mixture of English and Norwegian and he didn't speak the language as much as they remembered we came by boat to New York. We entered the Statue of Liberty. And we had name tags on our coats. Saying who we were and where we were going. And. They put us on a train. To go to Chicago where we were met by my dad. And then we came to Riverton by train. And we drove up to the Thai camp. Dad had made arrangements for me to board out during the week to go to school because they were living in a logging camp and

so I boarded with them with some people and went to school. I did not know a word of English. So it was quite an experience when I'd come home my mother would want to know what words do you learn English this week. She was very interested in learning how to speak and in those years on the mountain we were snowed in. You know we would have had to have been Diski off. Or be sledded off. Once in a while we could keep the roads open with the bulldozer. They usually kept a car or two at the bottom of the hill in case there was an emergency if someone had to go to the hospital in Great Britain or lander. But you'd have to skate to school in the winter because we lived down in them by the river and you had to go up this hill. And you'd have to ski because the snow was too deep

to walk. And then you had all these books you couldn't use polls you had to pack them books you didn't have backpacks and all that. In those days for a woman it was plain hard work. One of the stories I tell in my book from Shirley Daniels of raising a baby out in the woods. She was in one of the outlying camps and the baby waking up in the middle of the night and she did have to get up and and chips the ice to get enough water to heat the formula for the baby. You know. That's pretty rough. Those were hard days. There's no doubt about that. With so many families living in such isolation. There had to be a support system. At one time they had used the big cookhouse in headquarters when the men lived in the bunk house when they were first cutting near there. But then as the years went on they moved the cutting. The cutting was all in farther away. It

was too far away for the men to live in headquarters so there'd be outlying camps all around and there was always a cookhouse in each of the camps and the men could bunk by themselves if they wanted to and cook but most of them preferred to eat in the cook house. You know you made your own fun you didn't have a car or anything like that. You were a hundred miles from Robertson. We didn't go to doctors or anything. You just got well or died. And you know you didn't have radio or television or any of that stuff you didn't know what was going on in the world. So that was nice. But we played games in the schoolyard. And in the winter time you skied to school. We called it going to school now they call it cross-country school. And then at recess we went outside and skied on the Hill. And at noon we went home and had lunch and skied back. And then recess again. And then after school take our stuff armscye home and then go

out and ski. We didn't have a car to drive. Whenever you wanted to go two miles in a while. So it was nice. Well one thing you learned to work. You had to work for where you got. You know you had to solve and would buy him and cut it back at him and all that sort of stuff. And everybody was poor. There wasn't anybody that had more than the other. And so you didn't have to worry about keeping up with the Joneses or anything. It was nice you know to live up there and everybody was friendly and anybody in need everybody pitched in and helped you know. You know it's just altogether different. And then I had this store at headquarters you know and they had this. They called it a nice house and they had ice in there that kept to me

and they had those big rings sausages and stuff. And they had sawdust on the floor. That guy is no old butcher. The man that was running the story. I know when we were kids he take us in there and slice of pizza that good salami and stuff and give me a piece of that cheeses and things. That's the way they had it. And then people could come by in the store and you know the bananas came on a big rock and. It was you know they didn't you didn't have a lot of fruit or anything. You got oranges or apples once in a while. That was a big treat. And when the holidays came they were appreciated. All the hard work all the hard weather all the distance between Wyoming and the old country gave way to joyous celebrations and traditions still remembered fondly. That they did a lot of dancing in the old cookouts. So that was the gathering place for us

in the day and since they come out of the woods out of the camps to come around and for the big Christmas parties. At the end of the dinner they would push the table from the benches back by the wall and the Matheson brothers both played accordion. And they. Play for everybody to dance. They dance around the wee hours of the morning and it was like by the time we got back home I thought this is different than any Christmas. But if you're. One of the things I remember the most about the school Christmas were almost always the kids gave a play for the community what 20 people whatever we had you know. At the cookouts and then the Wyoming time timber company gave every employees kid. A wonderful box. And I remember these huge you know.

Huge box full of presents. And. Lydia Olson and and. I probably assumed that Luis bambie who did it to shop for gifts for each of the kids individual gifts for each of the kids ahead of time. And that was our wonderful Christmas present every. Spring arrived. But the job was only half done and the next phase involved an extraordinary journey. Well the way of the way it worked why the the the full year round. Hacks were working up there all winter long and they would both here with them with their broad axes. And then they later on put up a portable saw mills where they went up into the woods and above the are in up warm springs creek bed. And prepared all these tied and stacked them right along the edge of the tributaries to the Big Wind River

mainly a little warm springs and and or. And then when it came time for the drive that's when they beefed up their crew and hired maybe 40 45 50 men more went in there and then that's when the drive started. There were no roads no trucks no rails in the high country. So the tires were assembled in the High Valley in the Wind River Range and pushed into a stream. They were funneled by flows down the steepest part of the canyon and then to the Big Wind River gets tucked into the treatment plant Rivertown. There were really two drives. The first one was up on Warm Springs Canyon Creek and that's where all the tires were broke through one location they were flown in smaller rooms during the high water and so that whole Warm Springs Valley was literally filled with flies. And so the first day you have to work on the front of that great big pile of kind of tie that went up the river probably three or four

miles and start pulling a pipe out of that big jam and into the river. And so it was usually just the hard work of pulling the tires off of that big pile into that little creek Warm Springs Creek and send them down the room. And that was day after day for about almost three weeks it took for that Dr. Murray lined up to enter the flume so that they were spaced and not riding up on one another do. So they fly out of the flume 50 cents an hour nine hour of the day seven days a week. As good a food as could be had and as long as you're young and stupid it was great setting up camp. First up on the upper Warm Springs river or a creek that was cold there and that night

especially. So we had teepees as we set up. So we're on pole to he could raise them with poles and have usually had a couple of steaks all flied to hang your boots on upside down so they would dry up at night so far and put our fox in. And so we camped along the river all the way down. You furnished your own boots the boots were dry boots heavy pixels heavy thick uppers came about halfway up your calf of your leg. They were lace boots. Most of them had what you call them hobnailed their car or whatever they were they were stuck in the bottom of the soul and the stuck out is a quarter of an inch as big as a gripper like chains. One the river drive. I didn't have a tepee So I just rolled the

bedroll right on the ground. And I didn't care too much about how rough it was because after working nine hours on the river we were tired and I slept through the night without waking up regardless of any rocks or anything else. But that was our camping and sleeping situation a typical day started in the early. Started with taking down your teepee and poles and rolling it up. Taking over the were they have loaded on the trucks moved the next camp. Breakfast at about. Exactly 8 o'clock. Alfred Olson would. How are you. They were already got into trucks and went to work. If the campsite was available at noon we came in at noon for lunch. Sometimes it was remote and. Lunch was brought down by boat.

I've always wanted to be on a play of drive but I thought I was a little bit too little. I only weighed about 120 pounds but I was determined to try. And so I drove all the way up from Robert and up to Martin Olson's cabin and my dad drove out a row up to the cabin. He came out on the porch and said Who do you want. It kind of scared me. I thought you go grow up anyway he looked me up and down as well. He says you're all for a little but you're young enough maybe you do go and sign up. So happy that I finally got on the Clyde right after many years of looking forward to it. The year with 1937 the year I was on in 1942 as early years of World War Two. And there were three kinds of people on the tide drive. There was a contingent of Indians that had been on the drive before and some first timers. Then there was a group of Scandinavians the tax themselves that really knew how to work the ties and

handle them and then to fill out the crew by McGlothlin and Martin and Alfred Olsen hired a bunch of us. I would. I was a recent high school graduate and there were a few college kids. There that they probably hired on about 20 of us schoolboys so to speak to beef up the crew the arriving up there. We. Floated down 350000 times which was at a medium size tide drive. And I remember the first day we got up there just about dark. And the first thing they told me to do is to go out back of this little. Cabin. And they had pike poles as they were called. They showed us a pile of spruce saplings with a bark on. And there were eight to 10 feet long and they had a pike which compresses up a point and a hook like this Handford and three rings.

So you took those pikes in the ring and you made your own pike pole as you can see the hook here and so you could push the ties. And then this hook here is such that you can hook them and pull them toward you. Don't go away. We'll have more of the story in just a few minutes. But right now I hope you'll take a moment to call in your support while we public television so that more local programming can be produced for a while I mean audiences. The journey that began in the Warm Springs Valley continue through a steep canyon.

To do that a flume was constructed that was as tall untwisting as a Coney Island roller coaster. It was a key link in a system that brought the Thai's out off the mountain. And of course they had the big flume along the side of warm springs creek there and that was one of the engineering marvels of the state. You know. The fluid was a V-shaped made of boards water way all soon and Van Meter supervise the building of the flu from the end of the floor near the bridge through the big warm springs Canyon the natural bridge down to and into the river. The no Marathe in place. The flume was several years old by 1942 and the planks had shrunk as they dried out so there was a crack. And two or three places about an inch or half inch thick.

So they had some of us to try to seal those cracks. We're shoveling dirt into the plume and they were hoping the mud would sort of seal it off. And then my job that at the upper end of the flume was to cut the ties as they started to pile up into the flume with my pipe. Call them sort of run along the catwalk encouraging them to go on down the creek and then they dumped out into the pool there in warm springs and then went on down into the river. It was quite a quite a feat I think it was unique it was necessary with the hung from the wall of the canyon where it could be it was on the Trestles. The curves were such that the tires didn't build up momentum and fly out. And it worked.

The flume went through the natural bridge and it was kind of kind of hairy because there wasn't room to stand upright nor was there room for a cat walk. So when you went through the flume you kind of monkey walked hand the foot on one side and then the foot on the other for a distance to where the room began. About two miles up from the river and it was a flume camp with three or four guys in it who monitored the tides coming down and they kept track of if there was a space obviously there was some problem upstream and they notified the head and so they stop feeling tired then. But

the biggest problem and that was really a difficult problem. Once in a while like I would ride up on the end of it. And then when they went around the corner the momentum would throw it out of the flu. But that was maybe 100 200 times the drive it wasn't there. It wasn't a big problem but there was a crew monitoring the flow of times. Now it was time for the most dramatic part of the process. Hundreds of thousands of times over 600000 in 1925 all poised to take a wild ride down the wind river. The water turn the tide roll and the men guided them down poking Pauline and dancing. 100 200 men and a big piece of the force floating down the stream.

It was a nine mile journey by flying. It and it were warm springs joins the wind river about nine miles upstream from Dubois. It was July now. Quite a change of season from the cold winter days when the men were out in the woods cutting trees. As the ties came into the river for the warm springs flume. Another batch from the abstract mounds floated down Dune or creek from the east. Stacked along the banks of the river were more ties cut at lower elevations. And they went on as a tributary of the wind all merging together. You come down the street. Second place. After all their lives were dumped in by the flume dumped into the river about nine miles above Dubois. Then we start the main river drive. And most of the times of the time we're hung up on the sides of the bank or on the rocks or trees. And our job was to keep standing in the water pulling them pulling back into the into the river.

Day after day that was the upper part of the river was easier to go. But after we got down below DuBois in the canyon is very difficult to get through that canyon. The most dramatic thing which I'm sure you encountered in some of the movies was when you get a jam. And the Tigers start backing up for miles you know and have tens of thousands of tires all piled up and not moving. They had a special crew of people who were at Joy and knew how to handle it. Who broke up the dad the jams generally the jams occurred in the canyon. There were some boulders in there it's narrow and that's fast water that they had a crew of four or five guys that were the jam pullers that kept that open. It just simply was a matter of keeping the tires

moving downstream. You either. Worked in the back end is pulling back in the ME on main stream or. If they're piled up you. Pull them in. Herding dives downstream. They worked a nine hour day on the ice cold snow melt river wrestling with heavy tires. I got heavier as I soaked up the water amazingly. And 30 years of dry. No one was killed. But boy they did get hungry. The food is a thing that as to be the best thing that that three times a day experience. And that kept us going and I think I remember that probably more than any other thing. Cook was Adolph solum and he was ordered to be the probably the best outdoor cook in the whole of the whole world. Of course I'm concerned. And in

the morning breakfast consisted of pancakes. And pancakes for were mixed up in a big wash tub. That took 15 dozen eggs were put in first and no ever agreed with flour and so forth and they're always light and fluffy put on a big grill over the fire open fire and we had some of the best pancake. And then they always had a whole Dutch oven full of bacon fried just right. Another Dutch oven full of sausages linked sausage. Then there were a couple of Dutch oven full of scrambled eggs. And anything else of what the syrup and everything went with it. So we had a fabulous breakfast every day. Never failed all the way down there breakfast were actually good. They gave us a good start and we needed a good start because it was it was from sick from 7:00 until noon to eat again. And one run down to Red Rocks for

the camp was visible to tourists. Some people would stop in the field what's all that about. Adolph always said the horn on your fried rice was a eating that always plenty of food left over. And you can eat all you want. People from wherever you go up to 35 miles did a version that was sort of welcome the Thai tax coming down the creek. That was a rather popular place to go see the tides coming down river because they were all jammed up behind them and they also it was a nice place to set up the iron kettles and get a free meal for an entire day. It was never a smooth ride down the river. There were twists and turns drops and boulders. Anti-X made it through fish Canyon a natural obstacle. Then they encountered the version down. Erected in 1921 to divert water from the wind river into the arrogation system. This of course reduce the

amount of flow into the river which exposed rocks sandbars. Kottwitz nag's this slow down the tide drive. Most of the water from the dam is being diverted down the winding canal. So at that time drive time why the water going over the dam might be only inch or two deep. Over the dam. And of course the tides would come down and they wouldn't they would clear the dam so they had a whole string of us stationed at the dam with pike poles big long poles like I was tell you about here. And you just would lift the front end of the tie enough to start it over the dam and then it would go ahead or the dam and then go on down the river. But the diversion dam was a full blown obstacle and all 350000 or few of might have gone over. They all had to be lifted an inch or two to clear the dam and so they could go down river getting them over the river or version down.

It was quite a problem. And the tires were backed up on that basin for miles and I thought how in the world they ever get that over that dam. I found out that the basin was pretty well filled with silt and so we were about ankle deep in filth and the water was about up to our armpits. We're out of time and we're able to walk along in that silt and push these times ahead of us and gradually push them over the dam. And so feeling along with our feet and so forth. And I guess that's one thing that I remember I'm old because I'm proud of them. One of the most challenging things. After we got down below diversion dam where the river spread out we had to carry twice as much as two or three blocks away from the river. One day we spent all day nearly a hundred men all day carrying one big pile of tires on our shoulders back to the river again. You were doing crews were some two guys loaded not three other crews of two

carried loaders and lift guys up put them on your shoulder and you walked lockstep to the river and dumped two men and came back through the little road that was hard work and it was difficult work. The closest call I had was coming within a breath of drowning. A big tree had fallen down across the river right out into the stream. And as the tide came down there had been a whirlpool created. By this tree out into the river and there's a whole bunch of ties a hundred or so are stuck out there. I decided that I would ride out into this whirlpool and pull these tires out into the mainstream and get them on down the river. Well I got out there in the milling around there why I. Fell off my little homemade Thai boat and I was hanging on to a tie out there and getting more and more tired. And one of the fellows on the drive Victor Montoya saw my

plight and I can still remember him waiting out into the water and it was deep there in that whirlpool. He was just about up to his chin and he stuck out his pipe pull. I got a hold of him and pulled me over to the shore there. Otherwise I might have been a casualty in the drive as it dropped down from the mountains to the high plains. The wind river slowed and meandered. Soon the railroad bridge was in sight. The tie axe had been weeks on the river. Traveling over 100 miles. Now came some of the hardest work of all getting the tires out of the river and stacking them at the Typepad building McLaughlin was in charge of the play yard. And he had built an ingenious boom of logs on cables up to the angled end of the river and the pliers would go across the way across the. And the tie jammed some three or four miles up the river. But the tires were funneled down two channels.

Slide by side. So the two different conveyor belt two levels would pick up these tires and take them up on the conveyor belt. That would take them up and one behind the other. And then as it got up to the height of the conveyor going down to where the tire yards were why the turn and then had a guy helping them make that turn there. What the ties were stacked 14 ties high. And so and as they came along wherever you were working they had a little deal that kicked them off so they would jump off this conveyor belt. And then your job was to stack three. Piles. One to three away from the conveyor belt. The two of us would have to pile three hundred and sixty times in one hour. That meant that I had to be handled every 10 seconds. I knew it had to be out of the way and get

them straight. One day when I was totally exhausted pretty late in the afternoon after I'd worked all day I was hitting a time just at the moment. Jean put his boot up there. So I pinned him to the tie. But luck was with me. The pick a real tooth. One right between his big toe and his next hole. He didn't even bleed. As a lucky miss on my part. They're from there. They yeah they dried and they were loaded on a donkey cart pulled by a donkey engine and put into a huge retort and. Treated with creosote make them last longer. The rest of the crew. They headed into a river to celebrate and spend their hard earned money. And of course the end of a tired driver and Riverton was a time of

great celebration for the actual They look forward to the end of their year a final big celebration of the saloon Themba entertainment House. We're ready for them of course. And sometimes they would come to the end of their weeks or week of time there. All the money gone and what happy people they had a great time and go back and start the cycle over again and had a house of ill repute which was a very popular stopping place for for the tie. Tie hacks had been up there all winter long and were coming down the river and. The. The some of the ladies of the women in the community the mothers of the community thought that was a pretty nice thing because these wild attacks wouldn't be out there pursuing their daughters. Or their sisters or their answer or wherever it was and I'm sure that the little yellow house that was called did quite a booming business after the attacks came to town

after months in the woods and weeks on the river. The local officers were the Elks Club is now and there was free beer and that night Drew was a dance up above the office with up down the street to honk the horn of the truck. They hauled us then when they were broke they put them on the snoots wagon and took them back up to the woods and be prepared for another trip to retrieve. The men were part of the family. And so whatever was needed the company took care of. It was particularly noticeable in the waning years. The only time timber company because by then we had a lot of old timers old time tie hacks who couldn't do much out in the woods but there was one camp we called the old man's camp and that's where the ones who really would be retired could live

for as long as they wanted to. And if they wanted to go out and chop down a tie they could do that cut down a tree and make a pie. They didn't have anywhere to expect it to mechanisation replace many of the woodsmen skills. The winners in 1940 were much more severe. It got harder to find men willing to live and work. So much of the year in the woods. In 1947 less than 100000 times were cut and they were loaded onto trucks not floated down the river. For one generation brought X sang and carved with precision. And then. It was over. I see. You see. I see.

You. Nice to see you. Well.

Down.

Penitents in the channel I just want to I didn't sense this evening moping over in that box of things I've picked up on my travels. I. Spend half the year traveling and I'm thinking I should settle down. I mean we're than than a and losing their luggage falling over getting in and out of boats. She made laugh. That's this it's happening it's like it's called a prison catches the light. It's just so love like if you really want to live in a rainbow there's no reason why you shouldn't.

I think this is make even all. Unfortunately you can't take someone to the least of all around you. I thought after I found out who you were that I didn't want you to come and see me again you reminded me of something I've tried for years to forget. But I missed you. Now I want you to come and see me often with you. So exciting. Optimistic. And proud of. You. Always nice. To see you again. Yes. We know it's got a skeleton in his closet. And he said you reminded him of someone he'd rather forget. He looks sad when you told him he wanted him to know that it positively wasn't. Sending him the cause for you. Just tell me something.

John Pendleton and miss. Lovells. No. Oh Tom once told me she had to love her but I don't believe that because she's such a soul sick. But. I guess. It's just like. Oh I lost. My mystery. Perhaps he might fall in love again. He would have a double wedding. Come on. By the show. Did she go by the shining big sea water.

At. The door opening up his wake what a pleasant summer morning. Hi I. Stood. Waiting. To greet you. When. Should. We play. Mr. Darcy drew his chair to water and said you cannot have a right to such strong lackwit. You cannot have always be that boy. Stop no. I never thought being read to be quite so exhausting. I know better

Ridiculous is an absurd old man. She never goes home again. It really is none of your concern. The other people never once. Now you tell Polly the blessed is Mr. muff it's awfully nice.

Not. So. Sure. I don't like having people. Without you. You are fair light. Would you share my love too. I can't. Why not. Because I'm not Polly. You are no more hers.

Would you come in. If she was happy to let you. All Polly's been so good to me. Years ago. I loved somebody. Very much. I hoped one day. That she would share my house. She didn't. Since then this great pile of stones has been a house. Oh. It takes. A woman's hand. And. Heart or a child's presence to make a home. But she still loves Aunt Polly. Why don't you just stay in love is a God. Then the three of us can only guess the lovers around to night. I forgot that it was your mother.

Oh my love. Polly. No darling mother that you didn't know. Why I. Find. It. Since. The. Peevish old. I'm so tired I'll just share it with you. Please be here with me on Tuesday. She doesn't deserve you to enjoy anything. What is the role of a spirit such as you. Oh Scott I'm sorry. I'm sure. It's. Not but it's my favorite. Then sue the is rather threatening. Would you mind taking an umbrella. Meeting Polly
