] Both Ethan and Phelps dangled from different sides of the train, and barely avoided being crushed when an oncoming train whizzed by.They also disagreed on whether to flee to the South to Pineville (which would be dangerous for "a colored man"), or to flee to the North, where Cullen had once worked at a turpentine mill.I"m as liable o go to that Palmer dance as I am to eat a couple barrels of broken glass...Aw, let her get somebody else to take her.She ought to at least be able to get one fella I should think.She tries hard enough." After heart-felt begging, Alice"s mother cajoles her grumbling son Walter into taking Alice to the Palmer party, although she later blamefully ells her husband:And it"s a shame for a girl as pretty as Alice is o have to depend on her brother takin" her out when she could have any man in town if she only had some money to buy some decent clothes.He"s dead.He"s f--king dead." Laurie was living in the country outside of Haddonfield with the Brackett family, Sheriff Brackett and his daughter Annie, who had fully recovered.If there had been an obituary, it would"ve described the unremarkable life of an unremarkable woman survived by no one.[Collapse Section]
