In 1897, in Montana he could pay bride money to the Indians and got his only son Kie-yeong who married to a British woman, Kate Aram, who claimed to be an Eugene Aram's descendent. He found out that Eugene Aram was an excellent scholar, but didn't know that Eugene was hanged after he was convicted as a murderer of his rich friend. He married to Kate, and Matt was born. When Matt was three and his mother conceived the second child, his father confided whereabout of all his money in her. Soon after that, Kate took all his father's money and disappeared.
