Small Miracles of the Prairie. He stripped off another layer, this time his broadcloth shirt. He already had his coat hooked on the fence next to the gate.

Ray woke with a start when he realized the muffled sounds in his dream were really Livy, sitting on the edge of the bed, obviously in pain. Livy, what's wrong, are you alright? It's my leg, there's something wrong with the back of my leg. It's hard and it feels like it's on fire, it's not stopping." Livy's voice was edgy, nearly panicky.
