Now I'm back in Deadwood. I haven't long to live.
My arms and legs are so numb, I don't need the doctor to tell me I'm going blind.
My horse, Satan, is dead. Nothing held him but old age.
He used to come to my door for oats.
One day I showed him the empty sack and told him there were no more.
He started for the nearby hills and never came back.
Satan understood.
I drank to forget how you cast me back in Richmond.
The years have robbed me of you, Janie.
I know that I will never see you again.
I wanted nothing but you all these years.
Oh, how we punish ourselves for crimes we need never have committed.
Goodbye forever, your loving mother, Jane P.S.
Please excuse the paper and writing.
