Updated: June 17, 2025

An' the next news you gets is of how, inside of three months, she jumps some gent who's off his gyard an' is lulled into feelin's of false secoority ropes, throws, ties an' weds him a heap, an' he wakes up to find he's a gone fawn-skin, an' to realize his peril after he's onder its hoofs. That's what this Cumberland lady does.
