The bank is one thing but I also often wondered how the Mercantile stayed in business as well.   I know it's TV, but the population of Walnut Grove MN in 1880 was 153.  That does not account for surrounding areas, but that still does not seem to bode well for any business.  Perhaps they made money from pioneers coming through as they were heading west?

and the Olson's had tons of stuff too geez

I don't understand how the heck Walnut Grove got a bank in the first place. They were constantly broke

 

heck 8 episodes before the "Ebenezer Sprague" episode wa s"The Richest Man in Walnut Grove" when the Ingalls family was poorer than poor, but then 8 episodes later Charles wants a loan?!?!?

Yeah, I  know.  I just hate that episode because everyone pressures him to buy stuff before he had the money.  They should have not let the kids know and then it wouldn't have gotten blabbed all over town and then he would have waited for the money before spending it all.

Also, why on earth didn't the lawyer tell him it was confederate money in the first place.  I actually don't remember the details, but he either didn't give them a dollar amount, in which case they wouldn't know how much they could spend anyway, or he just flat out lied if he left out the small teeny tiny detail of it being worthless money.

Lawyer didn't know if I recall.

 

The money was in a chest which was locked and if I recall the lawyer told Charles he had no clue what was in it

Great show

It's really amazing and sad to think that Ellen Corbin's first episode back from her stroke was also Will Geer's last

Glad they got a last moment together

Well, let's look at what he bought.  Books for the school and an organ for the church.  The town should have at least paid him back for those anyway.

No I agree,

 

It's just he' so cash on the barrel and he just threw that motto away and started promising and charging stuff

I love "The Inheritance"

 

Charles gets told he's in his uncles will, so they buy a bunch of stuff without having the actual money then its confederate money and everyone blame sthemselves and Charles gets away scot free
