After twenty-five years of working with him he actually was thinking we were responsible for something. It just really upset me. Let's read the letter from mother shall we?" Nathan asked. Cassie snuggled into him and listened as he read the letter.My dearest Nathan. I just came back from checking you house four days ago. I was shocked to find they were packing the house up. I will assume this means you are moving away. I took to my bed for four days before I could write this. I do understand the reason why you feel the need to move. Your father has calmed down about Cassie and is not going to demand an annulment. He actually feels bad for Cassie and the life she had

When Jacob came up to camp he started taking pictures of the things the found for the journal. "How is it going Nathan?" Jacob asked."There is a lot of clay in the lock I really don't want to break it. It will make it a lot less valuable." Nathan said. Cassie came over and kissed him then took the leather case Mark gave her and the things Nathan brought back and went to lay on the pillow out by the fire. As she read she ate some fruit and cheese.
