After his life gets busier he finds that he needs help with his two young children so he hires a woman from back east. She only has one problem--she will not attend church and although she does help the children when they say grace, she will not join in any discussions over bible passages. When the sheriff takes his young son on a week-long trip out of town, he returns to a surprisingly faithful woman who suddenly, willingly, enjoys both reading and discussing the bible with the family. This only enriches the sheriff's growing feeling for the woman, but he has to get up the nerve to ask her how she feels. Solitary Journey Along The Oregon Trail: Escaping An Outbreak Of Disease is the story of a southern woman and her older brother, striking out for the West to escape the hardships of the South after the Civil War.
