“Maude and Lilly addressed over a hundred wedding invitations. As she rubbed her sore hand from all the writing, she felt guilty about sending out invitations to a wedding that would never take place, but she told herself she had no choice. She couldn’t marry Horace. She simply couldn’t.Exactly four weeks and two days after she’d mailed her letter to John, she saw Harriett in the post office. Their eyes met and Harriett gave a slow nod, letting her know she’d received the letter. They left the b...uilding and once again went to the restaurant next door for pie and coffee. As they sat, Harriett handed Maude the letter.“Hello Maude. I’m pleased you are willing to travel all this way to be my bride. I’m enclosing a train ticket for Monday, May seventh and some funds for any expenses you have on your trip. I will wait for you at the train depot, and drive you to Hudspeth where we will be married by my pastor that afternoon. I’ve made all the arrangements. I look forward to meeting you.MoreLessRead More Read Less
