One day, Baylis had enough of her mother’s rambling. she packed her suitcase and went to bed. She would leave the next morning for New York City: Her first destination. Her sleep was troubling. Baylis tossed and turned all night long. She barely got a wink of sleep. As usual she was awoken by her mother’s yells. Telling her to go feed the horses.
