Hidden Saddness

    Newer Older

    Welcome to The Rosewood.....a pre-civil war plantation being beautifully maintained out in the rural countryside of NE Texas. However, this stately, elegant property has a very sad past.

    The story is...the daughter of the homeowner was engaged to be married when word came of the declaration of war between the North and the South. So, her fiance headed off to fight alongside his fellow southerners in The American Civil War.

    Some time later the sad news of her fiance's death while serving in the war effort arrived at the manor. Devastated with the news of the loss of her love, the young girl committed suicide. Sadly, just days later, the young man returned from battle.
