Tasha couldn't believe what happened to those poor people. They lost their lives so soon over a foolish, evil man! Tasha began looking at other papers and articles she had found lying on the table and came upon the deed to the the house and the will which had Anita's name written on it. Everything was left to her after a distant, distant cousin had passed. Tasha decided to grab a sweater and head toward the cemetery to look for the young girl's grave. Even though she didn't know the young girl she felt so sorry for her. The young girl wanted nothing more than to run away and be with the man she so truly loved. About 30 min later Tasha arrived at the cemetery and began to look at the graves. They had moss growing all over them and there were weeds and tall grass every where. It's a good thing I wore boots. It was a small family cemetery and then she began looking at the names on the tombstones. She found Esther and beside her was Charles. She looked at a few more and couldn't find Samuel but then she spotted two beside of one another underneath a willow tree. She slowly walked toward it and seen Samuel's name and then what she seen next chilled her to the bone- "HERE LIES TASHA HEMINGWAY
JAN.16,1869-APR. 13,1875"
Tasha fell to her knees and couldn't believe what was happening to her. She was dead this whole time and her spirit was trapped in this God forsaken place until she found out what happened the night she passed away. She held her head in her hands and just sobbed uncontrollably. She then felt a gentle touch upon her shoulder and she turned and seen that it was her beloved Samuel. He came back for her. Now they can finally be together forever. As they held hands and looked into each other's eyes they faded away along with the sun. May they rest in peace!!
