The next two years was a living hell. Newt was struggling to get better, Lemon came down with Scarlet Fever right before Elsie gave birth to a son named Oren. Finley was a massive star in helping around the farm but came down with the flu. George Paul (Elsie’s cousin) heard of the plague hitting the house and brought his colleague to come and help out because just as Elsie was recovering from birth she too was hit with Scarlet Fever.
Lemon thankfully made a full recovery but it was in exchange for Ansel contracting Typhoid.
