Autobiography by Mary Park Brockbank North.
COURTSHIP AND MARRIAGE
Our courtship began in June in the summer of 1889 when I was 1
7 years old. I at this time was bust budding into young womahoo
d. I was tall and slender, with large blue eyes and blond hair
, and weighed 110 pounds.
I loved toride a horse and frequently went for rised on errand
s to the post office orthe store. I had a side saddle and a ri
ding skirt as it was not customary atthat time for a girl to ri
de astride.
One Day mother sent me to t he butcher shop for some meat for di
nner. I rode over to 39th S on Hyland Drive, where the North Bu
tcher shop was in operation. I got off my horse and went insid
e to get the meat. John Add was behind the counter to wait on m
e. Our acquaintance at this time was very limited, but I did kn
ow who he was. He seemed very pleased to see me and said, "Oh
! how are you?" I said just fine. Wetalked a little more an
d then he said, "You are riding a horse I see. Do youlike to r
ide horses?" I said "Oh you bet." He then said he liked to rid
etoo, and asked how it would be if he came over and took me fo
r a ride. I joKingly told him that would be swell, but little d
id I dream that he would becoming. However, in a Day or two h
e came over riding one horse and leading another with a saddle o
n for me. A wonderful easy riding horse. I got readyand we ro
de up to Wasatch in Little Cottonwood Canyon. This was quit
e a ride for me and I was surely stiff and sore the next Day.
From this Day on I sawJ.A. really often. He had a Columbus bug
gy and a bay driving horse. Sometimes he had a team of horses a
nd we would ride quite often together, and if hehad business i
n the city he would come and get me to go with him. We oftenca
lled at Tucket's or Bird Murphy's candy shop and got a box of ca
ndy.
I went to school one year after we started keeping company. Th
e school was located on the corner of 48th South and Hyland Driv
e, known as the Seminary. Itwas a two-story brick building own
ed by Bishop David B. Brinton. Students came from all the surro
unding wards. John's sisters, Lone and Lilly, also attended th
e same school and drove John's horse and buggy to school.
We had no telephone and often after I had been out with J.A. th
e evening before, I wouldget a note or letter the nezxt mornin
g delivered by his sisters. It was while going to school that J
ohn asked me to marry him and he gave me an engagement ring.
In the spring of 1891, John's brother, Charlie, who had been sic
k all winter with heart trouble, decided to go to California an
d get in a loweraltitude as he had been advised by his physicia
n that it would be very beneficial to his health. John had arra
nged with Charlie to go with him and they would get a job so tha
t they might be able to meet the expenses as neither ofthem ha
d the ready cash.
Charlie had a little unsettled business in Parma, Idaho, where h
e had worked and wished to see to this before he went to Califor
nia. John was to meet him there and then they would proceed tog
ether to alower altitude. He was gone but a few Days when the
y received word from Idaho that Charlie had passed away. This w
as April the 2nd
John did the business of seeing that his body was returned to Sa
lt Lake City and made the necessary arrangements for his burial
. This was a sad occasion. Charlie left a young wife and fou
r small children. After the funeral was over, John and I wento
n a little trip to Provo, where my Grandma and Aunt and Cousin
s lived. We had two nice driving horses and were gone for fou
r or five Days when we received a telegram saying that Ruth, Cha
rlies oldest daughter, had died and wewere wanted home at once
. We lfet to come home early the next morning, but it took th
e greater part of the Day to make the trip.
Our amusements at thistime consisted of house parties where the
