Bushnell (search for this): article 19
Getting a wedding coat.
--Among the anecdotes related by Dr. Bushnell, in his sermon at Litchfield, illustrative of the Age of Homespun, was this: One of the aged divines of that country, still living, was married during the Revolution; but under singular difficulties.
There was an obstacle to the wedding which seemed insurmountable.
He had no wedding coat, nor was wool to be had to make one, and it was in the dead of winter.
Yet all parties were ready, and he was anxious to be married without delay.
At last the mother of the intended bride discovered the difficulty, and promptly had some of her sheep shorn and sewed up in blankets to keep them warm, while of the wool she spun and wove a coat for her intended son in-law.
