“There ain’t a relation in the world that my little girl could go to. I’m goin’ to die in half an hour. But what better would she be if I lived? What would I do with her? Keep her here and let her marry some fightin’ lumber jack that’d beat her? Or see her break her heart tryin’ to make a livin’ on one of these rock hills? She’d fret 20 herself to death. She knows more now than I do and she’d soon be wantin’ to know more. She’s that kind.
“She’d ought to have her chance the way I’ve seen girls in towns havin’ a chance. A chance to study and learn and grow the way she wants to. And now I’m desertin’; goin’ out like a smoky lamp.
