INTRODUCING SEAN & BRIANNA! |
| Sean Dennington stared out the window of the
stagecoach, his mind swimming with so many things he could not pick only one out. The
letter from the mayor of the small town he was heading to, the new posting as preacher in
such a place, the effects of such a long move on little Brianna. He spared a glance at the
sleeping child next to him. She really wasn't so small anymore, 9 years old now. Sean
withdrew his hand from his pocket, the letter clutched tightly. It was ragged now, faded
from being read so many times. He unfolded it but did not read, he had it memorized long
ago. Dear Rev. Dennington, I thank you for your inquiry about the opening for a minister in our town. The sheriff, whom you mentioned, Teaspoon Hunter, did indeed state that he knew you and had told you about the job. With his high praise of you and your abilities, it is my pleasure to inform you that we would love for you to come and help us build our church here in town. No need to write back, just come. Enclosed are two tickets to Dreamville, for you and your daughter. We look forward to meeting you and hope you have a safe trip. Sincerely, Caller Bob Mayor of Dreamville P.S. Teaspoon wanted to add something. Don't worry none, Deveraux's the best we got. Go see Miss Destiny Jones at the boardinghouse, she'll have a room ready for you and the youngun. See you when you get here. I can't wait to see how big the girl's gotten since I last saw you and the missus in Amarillo. Your old friend, Teaspoon "We'll be arriving in Dreamville in an hour folks, notice one hour to Dreamville." The stagecoach driver called from her spot high above the occupants. Sean shook his head in amazement, a woman stagecoach driver. Would wonders never cease? The hour passed quickly and before he knew it there he was, stepping out of the coach, highly polished boots, his best, stomping the dust down. There was no one to greet them. He had expected this. Brianna slipped her hand into her father's and squeezed tightly, Sean glanced down at her and smiled. "Shall we go see Teaspoon now?" She nodded sleepily and leaned over to pick up her small bag. Sean stretched out
his free hand. "Give that to your old Da, ya look like you’re about to fall over
Lass." Obligingly she passed the bag to him and dropped her hand from his. "Now
stay close, we don't need ya wondering off now. We'll get to the boardinghouse shortly.
Then ya can sleep all ya like." |
