Legion Comes Home (Sorta)

Legion come home on a train along with some other soldiers heading north. He were the only one what got off, except for a coffin what they put a flag over when they moved it out. We all said Legion were lucky. But we did not know what we was talking about. His mother had writ him about Lila so there warn't no shock there. But Legions's nerves was something awful. I never knew him to smoke or take a drink but he was doing both all the way home so I heard. He went to live in his old house and took a job at the garment factory where he were a manager before the war. He warn't no manager now and it didn't look like he ever would be any more. They said in church one Sunday where the preacher were telling the Bible story of Legion, the demons, and the pigs running off into the water and drowning Legion fell apart. He couldn't stop crying and they said he cried for days and days.
