they do say that merlin van tornhout

did shoot my daddy.

i think merlin did go on the heaven train

after the bullet did come through sara chickering’s door.

no one can see merlin since that night.

he did go like the kittens, and lewis, and my mamma.

but he did not come onto sara chickering’s porch with a rifle

before he left on the heaven train.

merlin didn’t make a bullet shoot through my daddy.

i know.

i did see who did.
