The Wedding Day
A Tale of New Amsterdam
By HELEN INGLEHART
Copyright, 1910. by American Press
Association.
There lived in the town of New Amsterdam.
which is now the great city
of New York, a Dutchman?they were
ail Dutchmen there then?named Peter
Van Gaasback. Peter had a daughter.
Karrinu, whose eyes were as blue as
the vault of heaven, whose cheeks
were like two roses floating In a pan
of milk and whose hair buug down her
back like a lovely woven flax rope.
Now, there were a people not far to
the east of New Amsterdam who were
of English extraction and of an entirely
different makeup from the Dutch.
These were the Yankees. Whenever
the two peoples met for trade?they
never met for anything else except to
tight?the Dutchman invariably went
home with nothing, while the Yankee
bad twice as much us he bad before.
It Is not to be wondered that the former
hated the latter.
i'ardon Laugdon, the Yankee who
had won Katrlna s young heart, was a
loug. lean, hungry looking youth who
walked with u slouehy gait, drawled
bis words and did uot appear to know
enough to go under cover when it
rained. Nevertheless he was not to
be shaken from his purpose to marry
Katrina despite the refusal of her father
and mother and the principal citizens
of New Amsterdam. These principal
citizens, including her father,
met to take measures to prevent the
robbery of one of the most beauteous |
of their lassies by a Yankee and her j
transfer to the cabbage fields of Con- j
nectieut. A great deal of schnapps '
was consumed, and many pounds of
tobacco were smoked?for a Dutchman
could uot deliberate without both?when
the council came to the conclusion that
the best way to prevent Kntrina's mar- I
vying a Yankee was to marry her to a j
Dutchman.
No sooner was this decision reached t
than every unmarried man present put
forward a claim for the position of
Katrina's husband, whereupon her
father anuouneed that sh<* should be !
wedded to the man among them who j
could show the largest number of peltries?for
that was the sole business of ,
the town?and old Dietrich Van Crin- i
cle. some sixty years old. haidneadod |
and with the palsy, bavins shown that
he owned more shins than any other,
was selected to save Katrina to the
cgnjngpity ti
This was too laacb for Katrina'*
mother, who from this time sided with
ber daughter. But Katrina's mother
was the stupidest woman in New Amsterdam.
Katrina told Pardon Langdon
ail that had bappened and that
she was to be forced to marry old Van
Crincle on the fifteenth day of June
coming. Pardon told Katrina to persuade
her father to promise her that
If she was not married to Dietrick Van
Crincle on the 15tb of June. 1647. she
should not be forced to marry him at
UII. VU1 ouuuiu uc (iriuium IV umij
whomsoever she liked. Katrina. aided
by ber mother, spent a week persistently
entreating tbe old man to grant
this request, and he, worn out by their
Importunities, finally gave in. But b?
told Van Crincle what he bad done
and warned him to surely be on band
on the appointed day to claim bis j
bride.
When Katrina reported the succest, 1
of her and her mother's work done
upon her father he told ber to tell her
mother to meet him that night at tb?
base of the tower wherein was tlis
town clock. The mother did so. and
Pardon, opening the door for her. told I
her to go tip and set lhe clock back j
twenty-four hours. This was done, and j
Pardon instructed her that on the lotb
of June she should tell her husband .
what slie had done.
The result of all this was that ov
the morning of the appointed wedding
Peter Van (Jnasbaek called the council
together, told them of his promise to ,
his daughter, of his wife's turning the i
cloek back twenty-four hours, and that j
K.itrina now claimed tnut rue ua.v ior |
the wedding had passed. What should
he do r
Anthony Ten Broeck, the clearest j
headed man in New Amsterdam, arose j
and attempted to prove thai, though I
the clock bad been turned back n
day. no day had been lost But he
became involved in his own argument
and sat down in confusion. Others
endeavored to set the matter right but
met wltb uo better success than Ten
Broeck. Then tbe bridegroom expectant
attested to abov that tbe day
appointed for the nuptials had arrived,
bul he only succeeded In proving that
a day bad been lost by tbe turning
back of the clock and tt was now tbe
16th of June. An the acboapps and
tobacco smoke mounted to tbe bralna
of the Dutchmen the confusion became
greater, and tbe debate lasted so
long that soma of them went to sleep,
while others went home to dinner.
After dinner the discussion continued
till It began to grow durk, ana au went
home to supper and to bed.
The next morning Katrlna went to
her father and claimed that the 15th
of the month bud passed while the
council were debating and she was
now entitled to marry whom she
pleased.
The old man was satisfied that It
was now at least the 16th of the
month, and he was not quite sure but
it was the 17th. Katrina's mother got
so mixed in her calculations that her
reckoning was lost entirely. The father.
being satlsfi?>d that whatever was
the date the day appointed had passed,
felt bound In honor to permit his
daughter to have her own way.
