And this is my wedding day. There goes the only man I ever loved. When he鈥檚 here near by me, I could give him the worst treatment a man could desire, and when he goes away he takes the heart and all of me off with him, and I feel like an unfurnished house. This is pretty feelings for a girl to have, and she in her regimentals. Oh! if he wasn鈥檛 married鈥攂ut he is, and he鈥檇 have married me as well鈥攖he malignant! Oh! if he had, how I鈥檇 have made him swing for it鈥攊t would have afforded me the happiest moment of my life.
