Hello everyone! This is Caleb Ware reporting back from Mexico. I know it's been a while (figuratively speaking) since I've last reported, but anyways, AMAZING things have happened in the past few days I've been down.
You remember how I mentioned the Fellows family in my last post? Well, I've dug up some information about them, and they seem to be an outsider in their town. I found out that they're nonreligious and are not even Mexican. As I was following them about, I saw the priest being smuggled in by the Fellow's daughter, Coral. I also found out the daughter's father is a Captain Fellows of a ship. A CAPTAIN! A man who was just returning from oversees duties comes home and finds out that his own daughter is hiding a fugitive from the law. This is turning into some gripping and intense stuff here. As I went on with my research, I learned that the Fellows family seems a little disconnected with each other as well as others in the society. The wife seems to be very distant from her husband, and the daughter appears to be very independent, taking care of her sick mom and the whole household and land while her father is away (which seems to be awesome). One day while I was staking out the place, I suddenly saw the lieutenant come up to the place. I quickly moved in closer so I could here what he wanted. Apparently, the lieutenant is looking for the priest (who just happens to be hiding at the Fellows household). As I was listening, it seems the daughter is hiding the priest in the barn. It appears Coral (the daughter) hasn't told her father about the stranger hiding in their barn until she tells him the reason why the lieutenant is at the door waiting to talk with them. I heard her begging her dad to let the man stay with them and send the lieutenant on his way. He finally gives in and lets the priest, convincing the lieutenant that there is no one on their property that they know of. Once he leaves, Captain Fellows meets the priest, and lets him stay in the barn for a few days. Although he is kindhearted and gives him food and water, the captain still is suspicious with him and firm, basically implying that he has not right to ask anymore of them, and that he has to abide by the captain's rules and regulations. One thing I noticed about Captain Fellows is that when the priest asked for some wine, he wouldn't give it to him. Fellows and his family aren't religious, so why would he care about what the priest drank/ate, etc. This poses an interesting discussion that hopefully we'll find an answer to later on. A few days passed by, and I was about to leave to find something new, then suddenly I see the priest leaving the property; in the SAME direction as the lieutenant. I was expecting him to go the opposite, but here he is riding his mule towards the same path his arc-nemesis is taking. This is where I decided to stop recording and take a long break for awhile as I begin to put the pieces together to see how all the characters I've encountered connect and how their stories will come together in the end, if it's possible. This is Caleb Ware everyone, until next time.
