He seemed uninterested in anything she had to say, and after nearly an hour of very one-sided conversation, Hattie exited the jail completely frustrated. "What's wrong?" Matthew asked as he walked to meet her. "Ira's what's wrong," Hattie replied, agitated. "I know that communication has never been our strong suit, but his silence and disinterest today was eerie." Throwing her hands in the air, she let out a ragged breath. "He just didn't seem to care about anything, least of all me." Taking Hattie's hand, Matthew tried to console her. "I'm sure he still cares about you, Hattie. I don't think I have to remind you that he is going through an awful lot right now. It is only three weeks until he goes before the Judge again, and with no new evidence, he has no real hope of being cleared. Whether any of us like it, unless a miracle happens, he will hang."
