The Journey — W.L. Cox

Charles helps a bright young man travel from Canyon City, Co. to Philadelphia to enroll him into college. The young man wants to study Geological Engineering, but after praying Charles is shown that Geology is not what the young man is destined for, and it's up to Charles to show him the correct career path. Charles returns to England with his trusted friend George, and Conner, the young man that wants to attend college. Charles examines the existing vineyard and distillery and realizes he needs more land for vineyards and fruit trees to expand his distillery operations, and learns that an old enemy plans to murder his vineyard master, his wife, and destroy the vineyard. It's up to Charles to destroy his enemy, and protect the people that depend on him. Charles' young friend Conner that wants to attend college accompanies Charles to his enemy's home and is shot when he tries to shoot Charles in a fit of rage. Charles rushes to save his life by taking Conner to The Royal London Hospital as quickly as he can. An old friend of Charles' father has lost his wife and no longer has a desire to farm and asks Charles for help. Charles' 72 year old friend and servant is recovering from a broken leg after being crushed against a wagon and needs help taking care of the livestock. Charles decides to find a strong young man that can help his old servant care for the horses on the estate. Charles meets Captain Bernard Pennington, the same man that had at one time enslaved him, and the results of the meeting are stunning. After returning home to America, Charles takes the young man to Harvard and enrolls him into college, and encounters a rude and obnoxious enrollment person that forces Charles to visit the Dean's office and file a complaint that could cost Conner an opportunity to attend Harvard
