I have the most horrible news...news that I don't want to deliver, but I must...he needs to know. How do I word it...what do I say? Lance must know of his mother's passing...I must find him imediately!
I know he mentioned some people...called angels or something like that. I just can't remember the names...somewhere in a town called Hampshire...no...no...Hempsville, dang!
Well anyway I found this town called Port Hempstead, that is my only hope of finding my cousin Lance Merrick.
He knew his mother was ill when he left...why would he be so anxious to return to this place. The people are snooty and stuck up..nothing friendly or nice about this city.
I hate cities anyway, so who am I to judge...this stinking place. I just want to get the word to him so I can go back to the mountains of my home. Where I can roam free and happy.
What do people do for food here, there's no game anywhere and the water here tastes like bath water. Stinkin cities!
So my first day in this hole and not one person even acknowledged my exsistence yet alone talk with me. Guess I just need to be more ...forward with people but I certainly don't trust any of these..folk. Hope those Angels of Lance's are more likable than the citizenery of this pig sty.
Don't know where I'll sleep or if I should sleep given the looks of the crowd around here. I wish I could find Lance...I'm sure he could help me and I could do what I came to do...Poor boy...I never liked his mom much and I think the feelings were mutual.
In fact, I never really liked the Merrick family at all and after what Lance's mom told me I hate em even more. She is probably crazy anyway, or just burnin with fever and not making much sense. It just can't be...I hate this family and just hope the old witch was lying about my mom and my uncle *cringes* oooo....yuck..the thought of that digusting man being my father.
That just can't be....that....that would make Lance and me brother and sister...and Elgon ....a have brother... Merricks!
oooo..here come some really strange people...I gotta get out of here!
