Annie Allyger," I come from an Amish Mennonite background. The Allyger Family is right on the outskirts of town Shinning Star Village. Farming corn and beans my fater does. Mater a gut farmer's wife also makes wedding dresses. Has her very own shop on the farmstead. " Wedding Dresses, By Lola." a popular stop.
I come from a family of nine kinner five girls for boys. Very hard workers and loved us unconditionally. Everyone says all the time the Allyger Children resemble one another. You can sure tell which kids are Joan and Leo's.
Well then at an early age, I wanted to be a policeman, and Fater pushed it to say I'd be a gut one he laughed. I told you to always believe in yourself, and it will happen."
" Naturally I did so, making me feel stronger about myself in general and ideals. I promise to be the best one I can be. I'm telling you I will be diligent about taking care of you."
     " Danke so much," He said," Because I must confess we will become close as anything. I'm feeling gut about it because we have so much in common. I am an Amishman among six Braudaars, Ted, Max, Grant, Scott, Jumar, and myself. Our family is gracious in Belgium horses. We love them. My fater and mother run the saddle shop. As a small boy, I felt my fater was a giant to men, that is could do anything next to God. All my life Being a Belgium Dochder meant the world to me. As I set her visiting you I realize honesty is right up there too.
      Franklin Yoder, lived with his Braudaar Max, on the farmstead, he'd told Annie, the same Braudaar he'd shared a room while growing up. It made it comfortable to live together.
      He gave her a tour of the big farmstead, pretty yet plain. Two big living rooms, a library, brown tweed over stuffed couches, end tables a kaffi table. Lots of glass oil lamps and candles set around to light.
       " Your house is so cozy and comfortable, I love it here," Annie said smiling. It fits you to a Tee," She told him. Then they laughed, it felt like an honest-to-goodness laugh.
       "I would like to invite you over for supper in my trailer tonight. Annie asked.
      " I would love to, What time? 5 ok."
She left going back to her trailer, he left her a small tape recorder on our luncheon table which he took.
     Once home in the roomy trailer, inside a pretty decorated rustic adorable. Three bedrooms, nice kitchen, table and chairs, big screen television on the wall. Dark leather furniture. Hardwood floors with rugs.
     Thinking of what to make, decided on fried chicken on the stove in a big black cast iron skillet. She washed it clean no blood. Then cut it up using a sharp knife, using lard let it melt while dipping chicken in milk, then roll it in flour mix in cornmeal and pepper, and fry it.
     She turned it on low a lid on top, to fry slowly for a nice tender piece of chicken. Roasted cauliflower, sliced and breaded, fried golden brown then cheese on top, and a green leafy lettuce salad, with hard-boiled eggs sliced radishes, sliced celery, and grated cheese.
   Fresh squeezed lemonade, and slushy iced tea. And sliced fresh fruit, humbly gut to eat.
     Using her grossmamas bone china and Dutch glass goblets, silverware. Pretty light blue flowered napkins. The trailer looked nice for sure. 
     Her kitty cat, Swan, is a white female beautiful. She came up to Annie hugging her legs, She reached down and petted her head. After cooking and baking, she opened a file for Franklin Yoder. Taking out her laptop, and typing on it, File Cosmonot: Franklin Yoder,
She wrote about the murder scene replayed in his words.
