It is 1925. A lot has happened in the past five years.
Robert and Lisbeth now have only one child left at home--their daughter Mary. Lisbeth has been busy advocating the liquor Prohibition, and volunteering with some women's charities. Robert has remained busy at the law firm--now he handles a lot of illegal liquor cases, and things of that nature. He is thinking about retiring, but isn't sure who he'll leave his business to.Bobby and his girlfriend Dorothy Morris married in 1921. Bobby took a heavy caseload in Robert's business, and finally opened up an office of his own in Chicago in 1923. Bobby's daughter, Ella Joy, was born in 1922, followed by a son, Paul Nicholas, in late 1923. When the family moved to Chicago, Bobby seemed to grow distant and hard-to-reach, even for his own family members. In mid-1924, Bobby was shot during a police raid of one of Al Capone's hot spots. Upon investigation by Robert, it was discovered that Bobby was not only a frequent customer at Al Capone's bars, but he helped distribute liquor along a secret route. The North family was devastated. Dorothy didn't want her children being influenced by the bad things in Chicago, so she moved back to Decatur. She and the kids live with Robert, Lisbeth, and Mary in the North family's brick home. Julia and her beau Stephen Brown were married in 1921 as well. They have been very busy raising their four young children. Millie is the eldest, at three, and she has three younger brothers--the twins Stevie and Henry, two; and the baby, Abe. Julia loves being a mother, and she is very content to stay at home and care for her children. Stephen owns a farm on the outskirts of Decatur, so Julia and Dorothy are able to visit often with their children in tow. Edward, after two years of formal schooling, is a junior pastor at a small church in Pennsylvania. He enjoys being a pastor, and hopes to find a woman who will share his passions. Charlie enlisted in the Navy on the day after his 18th birthday. He is attending boot camp now, and hopes to be stationed somewhere within the next year. He has no romantic interests. Mary is thinking about opening up a greenhouse to sell plants and flowers to people. However, she would also like to go to college. Robert and Lisbeth aren't too sure about that, but will support their daughter however she chooses. Mary is also dating a young boy from her high school. His name is John Bridgeman. It isn't anything serious, however Mary is enjoying herself very much.
