"We didn't 60 II: for no stavin big

III knowed blame we'll that Tim couldn't
stand anything like that;and I didn't
want him to pull on the bRh right at
the start. So we fixed it up to nave a
quiet little family weddin, with nobody
there but me and the preacher and a few
IF the kinnery on 10th sides. Anti then
thinks 1 to myself if the hamstrins
holds and the trees don't break and
the breecbin don't fly UP there will be
Happy times and plenty of good rickin
over at the Skinner place when that
weddin day comes.
$50 after supper last night I mounted
my horse and rid on over to the Skinner
place to shove up the chunks and see
the thing well done. Everything was
ready and waitin. Miss Babe she was
dressed out of sight and 1ookih so fresh
and sweet till by gatlins it made my
mouth water to look at her. Presently
the preacher rid up and come in. and
then everybody was there but the main
'st man. Tim Logan come up missin.
We waited and waited till it want no use
TO wait. Miss Babe she cried, the
preacher led in prayer, and I got so
foamin mad till [ went out on the buck
porch and he1t a private cussin match
all alone with myself.
FINALLY at last I couldn't stand it no
longer. 1 then got Or my horse and
rid over acros the creek to see what in
the thunderations had went with the
mainest man. l felt so creese fallen
and furious till if I had met Tim Logan
in the road that night 1 have no doubts
but what a second-class funeral would
be goin on right now. But when I got
to the Logan place and dismounted and
went in Tim he was piled up in bed
shakin and tremblin from head to foot.

raked EN- off. Skeered? Man, sir, he
was skeered in an inch of his life, and
sweatin great drops of cold perkpira-

"At first I put right in to give Tim
my private opinions in rale strong
United States language, but when I
spoke the words miss Babe" and "wed-

blamed if it didn't look like he would
shake the house down and die with the
spasms. To start with I had some

all pluperfect vanity, Rufe. He jest
naturally couldn't come to the scratch.
Tim Logan never will live to git mar

As to Miss Babe, l reckon the right man
will come along some of these days,
and I do hope she will be happy hence
and forevermore. But in the

that has forever retired
