Corrected entry: Susannah first comes to the ranch during the summer of 1913. In the garden, Isabel Two tells Susannah that she is 13 years old. If you pay attention to the dates in the letters written, Tristan has left Susannah on his journey in 1918 and sends a letter saying he has become a hunter in 1919. The voice over by Stab then describes "many years" that Tristan is still supposed to be absent after his last letter before he returns, however when he marries Isabel Two she is said to be 20 years old. That would mean he would have had to come home in 1920 at the latest.

Correction: If we are to take the dates of all the letters and the two statements that attribute Isabelle II's age as factually correct, the only thing not accurate are the statements of One Stab who, when relating them to us in narration, is a very old man telling stories of events that took place at least 40 years ealier. Such inaccuracies can easily be attributed to artistic license in his story-telling or the failing memory of an elderly man, or a combination of both. In his mind, it may very well seem as if Tristan was gone many years when it was in fact just a few, as One Stab did love Tristan dearly.

Decker also says Susannah married Alfred 'several years ago'. Isabelle II should have been older when she married Tristan.
