SOUTH OF WISDOM

by Edith Webster

Abigail Hastings, Lora Fitzgerald, and David Houston are orphans, two now in their late teens, having been taken as children to the Dearling Ranch, in Eastern Oregon, in different seasons, by attorney Mason Kile.

When one of the kitchen help, a local farm girl, disappears, and the foreman watches Abby and Lora with hooded, menacing eyes, Abby decides she must take Lora and flee from the valley. They persuade David, the blacksmith's apprentice, to help them escape; his dream is to go to Montana, where his parents are buried, and build a home for himself. In 1880, in the midst of a cold spring rain and under the cover of darkness, the trio run from the ranch, fleeing the evil of Dearling Valley in search of better lives.

David slowly came to understand the very real danger that the valley held and was persuaded to take the two kitchen helpers to safety first - Montana would have to wait. The three would run hard, and maybe, with God's help, gain true freedom. Could long buried secrets catch and hold them captive or is there a way to win new lives?

LORA'S JOURNEY

by Edith Webster

Lora Fitzgerald gets word from her parent's attorney, Mason Kile, that she must cross the Oregon territory and return home.

While Kile is reluctant to send for Lora, he sees no other way: He is only seeking to fulfill the last will and testament of the Fitzgeralds.

Good intentions won't make the journey for Lora easier, but she does have a mountain man from Montana and a blacksmith-turned-farmer who is closer than a brother as traveling companions.

Although she's reluctant to go, she travels from grassland to seashore, by stagecoach, barge, and railroad as she bravely seeks to get to her final destination-Fitz Landing-the home her deceased parents so carefully tended.

Even if she arrives unharmed, it will be an unfamiliar world inhabited by seamen who are capable of killing just for the fun of it. Plus, a swarthy old man named Boggs wants nothing more than to destroy Lora once and for all.
