Trouble in Getting Married to a Western Rancher
A 45-year-old widowed rancher from the West seeks a wife for his two young children. He advertises in a Kansas City paper and receives over 100 responses. Letters vary wildly in handwriting and format, with most suitors widows, many profanely candid about loneliness, and only two mentioning religion. One 40-year-old candidate even suggests meeting at the post office with a concealed parcel, while others press for quick replies or disclose doubts about matrimonial sincerity. The man recalls a life of ranching, shipping to Kansas City annually, and a desire for a compatible partner to fill the role of a first wife’s successor.
