Dear Owen,
My wish for you
I wish you could be on a farm like Ebenezer's father. Nathaniel Jr. Your grandfather. He lived on his Ide farm all his life. It weren't his fathers but next to it You remember that Ebenezers grandfather, Nathaniel Sr had 17 children a bunch of them boys. Theres only so many times you can cut pie til you have none but there was plenty of land then so they lived close by each other. Can you believe that hill by them was called Ides Hill. That's what everybody called it. Because the Ides your grandfather and great grands and more had lived there so long.
You see it was first Nicholas and his mother come from England just after the pilgrims. Then they went to Rode Island after that first Baptist Roger Williams because Masechusets don't like the way they worship. Then Lt. Nicholas he fought in a war with the Indians. Then Jacob Ide and Nathaniel Sr. and then Nathaniel Jr your grandfather and Ebenezer and you Owen Fowler Ide. Emilene said Fowler was her family even though she was adopted so she didn't want to name you Owen McKinon Ide or Owen Riggs Ide.
I went far from my wish. I wish you have a farm like you grandfather Nathaniel Jr and live there til you die of old age happy. God will it will happen
Love, Gama Harriet
