But it was quite the proper thing as she was mountain too. She hastened home to tell her Pap that shortly she would be wed to one likely Mr. Rufus Brown. When Pap looked up and said: "No honeychile, you cain't do that. You will have to find another - don't tell your Ma, but Rufus Brown is surely your half-brother." Melindy shed a few tears, and slowly went her way, and soon she met another boy and hastened home to say: "Now Pap, I'm goin' to marry that Smith boy who lives down the street. He ain't got no bad habits and he dresses real neat" But Pap, he slowly shook his head and looked across to Mother, then whispered low, "You cain't do that. That Smith boy is also your half- brother." Then Melindy, she forgot her oath and blurted out to Mother, "Pap says I cain't wed Rufus Brown because he's my half-brother. Then when I met that Smith boy, although it sounds like treason, Pap says I can't marry him for just that same old reason." Then Ma says "Honeychild, don't cry. Put on your weddin' cap, and marry either one you want.... you ain't no kin to Pap!"
