JANUARY 26, 1861

Ike jumped up the steps into the bunkhouse and sat down on his bunk with a thump. He watched as a piece of paper fluttered to the floor by his feet. Picking it up he was surprised to see his name printed on the front.

Dear Ike

Hi Ike, Meet me at Dreamer's Hotel, room 17. You are the love of my life I want you to be mine. Please keep me your secret. And meet me on Valentines at 8:00 pm! Please don't tell anybody about us. Love, Cupid Caper

I really want you to know
That my life with you will start
Only when you use this key
To forever open my Heart!

This is the Cupid Caper,
Coming from me straight to you
I just would like you to know
That I am in love with YOU!

You are the love of my life
I want you to be mine.
Please keep me your secret
And meet me on Valentines

Ike turned the note over in his hands, and read it again. He tried to think of who could have sent it, but only one name kept creeping into his mind, Grace.
