The chicken coop needed to be fairly large, and they also had to build several cages. Evelyn Ford found Zion Lowell and asked him to make a few when he had a moment. Afterward, she announced the plan to everyone.
"Let's start tomorrow. We'll build the chicken coop next to the sheep pen and put up an awning with a tarp. It would be great if we had asbestos tiles."
Evelyn Ford agreed with Zion Lowell's suggestion. "Then let's start construction tomorrow. There's a place in Tarr City that sells asbestos tiles, but a round trip would take three or four days. Let's just use a tarp."
"Will those patrolmen come and cause trouble?" Wyatt Vaughn asked, concerned.
"They have their own problems to deal with. I doubt they have time to come here and cause trouble."
"Miss Ford, a man came by today. He asked me to check if he could come work at the farm."
Evelyn Ford looked at Chet Lawrence. "Work? What does he want to do?"
"Chop firewood, cut branches."
