He was melancholy and taciturn a mood which was the result of an announcement I had previously made to him namely, that his services would not be required during my wedding-trip.
The wives thus left in town to deplore their husbands' infatuation, are termed "grass-widows" a mining expression. MY wedding-trip was to be to England, and the marriage was to take place, and myself and CARO SPOSO to leave Australia before my brother departed for the Ovens diggings. The 'C , a fine East Indiaman, then lying in the bay, was bound for London.
People wondered that Giovanni and Corona should have chosen to retire into the country for their honeymoon, instead of travelling to France and England, and ending their wedding-trip in Switzerland. The hills were so very cold at that early season, and besides, they would be utterly alone.
So we were married. No wedding march, no flower girls, no veil, no rice, no wedding breakfast. Just a solemn promise to respect each other and be faithful.
