diane lane lonesome dove

Lorena was orphaned by the time she was seventeen. Her father, who had begun to sexually abuse her, died in Vicksburg, and her mother in Baton Rouge. Shortly afterwards, she met a man named Mosby Marlin. Though obviously a drunk, she was willing to believe his claim to be a Southern Gentleman, so she went with him to the town of Gladewater. Though he claimed to be willing to marry her, he truly wasn't, and she suffered greatly at the hands of Mosby's mother and sisters. Though Mosby himself didn't get treated much better, he swore to turn his hounds on her if she ever tried to run away. Eventually, Mosby began pimping her out to friends of his to pay off his gambling debts. Later he sold her as a trick to a man named John Tinkersley. When he discovered that she and Mosby were not actually married, he offered to take her with him to San Antonio. Since she found Tinkersley to be an attractive man, and he treated her better than Mosby did, she agreed, despite Mosby's objections. The only compensation Mosby received was the cost of a horse he managed to sell to Tinkersley.

Lorena had hoped that Tinkersley would take her further to San Francisco, but Tinkersley had no intention of taking her there. Instead, he made her work as a prostitute and made himself her pimp. She grew tired of turning tricks, and tried to save up some of her money to afford a life on her own. Tinkersley, however, found where she had been hiding the money, and brutally beat her, taking the money to make up for gambling losses. After failing at gambling in San Antonio, he decided he might have more luck closer to the Mexican border, so he took Lorena with him to the small town of Lonesome Dove. While staying in a hotel room during this trip, all her anger came to a head. While Tinkersley was passed out drunk, she tried to shoot him with his own gun. Being inexperienced, she didn't know the gun needed to be cocked. Unable to get it to work, she hit him across the face with it. This started a fight in which Tinkersley bit her upper lip, leaving her with a faint scar that would later become popular among her customers. Soon after, they arrived in Lonesome Dove, and Tinkersley abandoned her there. She continued to work as a prostitute, as it was the best living she could make.
