Weather quarrel and pudding tale at Fallowdale church
Fragmented 1863 Beaver Dam piece recounts a debate over rain timing between pastor Sharp and villagers as a drought met with insistence on God’s will. The tale shifts to household farce of bread pudding and plum pudding chaos during dinner, then veers into Civil War notes and odd anecdotes about military capacity and a General Nelson incident.
