He came back a different person.’
The whole Flynn family was looking forward to having Louis home but when they found out that he died that changed them forever.

'But papa just stays in his study, working on louis’ scrapbook, and mama works on her embroidery, and i feel so alone. I don’t know how only children can bear it.’
Everything has changed since Louis has died and papa is not as happy or full of life as he used to be. All the Flynn sisters have left and tiny feels so alone.

‘There had been 4 Christmases celebrated in larksrest without Louis, but christmas 1918 would be the first without hope of Louis returning, and their cousin Paul was a poor replacement.’
This show how long Louis was gone and how things have changed.
