"SOLDIER'S RETURN"

The son of Mrs. Whipple returns to Walnut Grove after serving in the Civil War. To forget his painful past, he takes morphine. His addiction to this eventually ends up killing him.

This was an interesting episode. Mrs. Whipple is so sweet... it was sad to see how her son's problem affected her... she wanted so much to help him.

I can't watch this episode. Seeing him by the tree towards the end and knowing he's dead is just too disturbing. A good message, just hard to watch.

I don't remember Granville grabbing Roy, Jr. by the arms like that. Could it be that TBS deleted a scene to make room for the commercials ? No, they would never do that (hah hah!).

I didn't like it...maybe because I didn't have sound.
But it did seem very..sad.

I do like it. But it is so sad that it hurst me every time I watch it. Miss Whipple is a so lovely old lady that it makes me sad to see her to lost her only son. Blue
