[3] Their landlord Kiser Pease (Harry Dean Stanton) is interested in marrying the eldest daughter Devola (Jan Smithers).

The Luther children scrimp and do all they can to eke out a living for themselves, even selling roots and herbs gathered from their land[4] to the local pharmacist to use in medicines.
