His eyes dimmed thinking of his own loss. "When my wife passed away, I had to get out of there. So, I sold my share of the stable, and with that and with some of my father's horsed sent over from Texas, I bought the place we live now and went to work making a new life." He explained, partially letting her know that people started over all the time for various reasons.
Lorn looked out the window and saw as they arrived at the station. Hearing the babies, he looked over and smiled. "I imagine you and they are ready to settle. Tell me where to send the maids and the wagon, what day, and what time and I have it set up for you." He was ready to be home himself. He missed his own little girl. He gave her the directions to get to his own property and where the cottages were so she could look over each of them to be sure which one she wanted to rent.
Picking up his hat, he made sure she and the babies were off the train safely. Standing outside, he smiled at her and put his hat back on. "Well, I look forward to seeing you again, Mrs. Calloway." He tipped the front of his hat.
