He and Katherine, his Americain wife have now been married five yeaars and have three sons: twins, age 4 and a single, age 3. Tebeau, their wolf-dog rounds out the family. Life had not been without obsticles that would have weakened most marriages, but Alex and Kate had conquered each one with courage and their faith that God would get them through the trials. Despite attempts on their lives, kidnapping, crevasses, and the loss of a baby boy, their love had withstood the storms and had only grown stronger and deeper than ever. But life as they knew it was about to change drastically. In 1860 there were rumors of war to come between the North and the Souoth over the slavery issue. In April 1861, war came with the shelling of Ft. Sumter in Charseston Harbor, SC. In April 1862, the war came to New Orleans, and to the front steps of White Pillars Plantation. Would Alex lose everything he and his forefathers had worked so hard to accomplish over the past 180 years? Would the Negroes on the plantation leave? He and Kate could only pray that God would be merciful and spare the burning of their home and property. Their love had survived so much already. Could their love survive the Civil War?
