In September of this year Silas the Ratcatcher took a bride to work the fourty acres he had in the Ohio Country. But Silas, being Silas soon fled from the lovely Hester Purefinder. A magistrate spotted Silas at Locust Grove, an estate near The Falls of the Ohio. Silas was then brought forth in shackles to remarry the charming Hester. The wedding was attended by various guests and the Maid of Honer was Dicey Riley. Hester wisely then had herself shackled to Silas so he would not flee again!
