To All and Sundry of the Clan of Durham of Putnam County, Indiana, Greetings: Legend hath it when the daughter of Simonides of Iulis was about to wed, a controversy arose between her and the prospective groom's Kinswomen and some of his kinsmen as to what wines were to be served at the wedding feast.

Their marriages to Kinswomen had redoubled the tie of blood.

Jeff went about among them, and danced with the sisters and cousins of several men who seemed superior to the lost condition of their Kinswomen; these were nice fellows enough, but doomed by their grinding, or digging, or their want of worldly wisdom, to a place among the jays, when they really had some qualifications for a nobler standing.
