Saturday Snippet: You Met Him Through Letters, Did You?

The following snippet is taken from

Mail Order Blythe

Secret Baby Dilemma Book 8 

 

          Eli looked up and saw Jason Sewell and Rand Poechet stopped several yards ahead of him. They had both turned back and studied him. Next to them, the baggage worker stopped the handcart on which all three of them had piled their trunks, two telescopes in cases, and Rand’s camera case. “I’ll be there in a few minutes.” He raised his hand not holding his carpetbag and waved. He waited for them to continue to the depot before he returned his attention to the lovely lone woman traveler. “As you heard, my name is Eli. Eli Morgan. Those two gentlemen and I teach at the University of Iowa. We’re on our way to Rawlins.”

          “You are?” The woman’s eyes widened and she looked down at her tickets. “That’s the same place to which I have tickets. Only…” She swallowed and looked away. “I don’t know anyone there. Well, I know one man at Fort Fred Steele which isn’t too far from Rawlins. We’ve been corresponding, and he’s asked me to marry him.”

          “You met him through letters, did you?” Eli knew his voice probably revealed his surprise. He felt disappointment course through him. She’s spoken for. “Then you feel courting through correspondence is a good option for finding a mate?”

          “I-I hope so.” A frown flittered across the woman’s brow and disappeared as quickly as it appeared.
