Read the passage.
A warm, promising wind blew across the prairie that Easter Sunday in 1889 as Molly and her sister carefully folded their blankets and packed their few belongings in a large burlap sack. In the morning they would rise at dawn, throw everything they owned into the back of their small covered wagon, and take their place in line. The border was filled with people ready to stake their claims on the pristine land that would one day become the state of Oklahoma.
