Miss Ellie once got mad that Ray was “running her daddy’s ranch without a drop of Southworth blood.” As for Lucas, Bobby had very little to with him.  He was being raised in Europe of all places. Bobby, then  John Ross and his kids would have been ideal, at least in Miss Ellie’s eyes.</p></blockquote><p></p>
