This Was Found In The Concord Times Other Stanly News
March 4, 1890 HAPPY
A Curious Relationship
Mr. Edmund Honeycutt married the daughter-in-law of Mr. Needham
Whitley, and Mr. Needham Whitley married the daughter of Mr. Edmund
Honeycutt, now being firm believers in the Bible truth, that the woman was
made for a help-meet for man, and reducing their faith to pratice, four of
Mr. E. Honeycutt's sons, Eli, Harrison, Noah and John took to themselves
wives of the daughters of Mr. Needham Whitley, and, in the course of time,
Eli's wife, who was a widow having children before he married her, died
and, to cap the stack Eli then married his own wife's daughter.
Now, Mr. Editor, if this don't entitle Stanly to a premium, Nehemiar
Muggins will waste no more time, paper, and ink in writing to secure a
wreath of fame for Stanly.
All those parties have children. Will some one who is skilled in
mathematical affinity and consanguinity, please tell us the kin of those
children?
Respectfully,
NEHEMIAR MUGGINS
Whitley, March 3, 1890
