Nighttime Moonlit Lovers Stuck Fast in Odd Romance

A Memphis Argus tale recounts a moonrise rendezvous on a cottage roof where two lovers, after exchanging vows, become physically bound as pitch melts. They attempt to part, wind up in their partners’ garments, and finally escape with the man removing his pants while the woman uses her father’s to free him. The uproarious incident ends with the couple fleeing amid blushes and laughter.
