The following snippet is
from Millwright's Daughter,
one of nine novellas in
the
Under a Mulberry Moon anthology.
Caroline jerked her hand through the air. “Phffft! The marriage record was gone, just like that. Fortunately, the couple’s parents had recorded the details in the family Bible. They took that and the two witnesses to the county courthouse and was able to get it recorded so there was no question the marriage was legal.”
Kit, his eyes twinkling, tamped down a
smile. “I’m sure the marriage was recorded in heaven, Mrs. Arnold, as well as
properly on earth in spite of the mishap. I imagine the Methodist circuit rider
suffered genuine remorse over the incident, particularly since he lost his
horse and probably barely escaped with his life. Maybe it’s time to forgive
him.”
Caroline pursed her
lips and looked off to the side. “Perhaps. I’ll think about it.”
