Annie Price The Mail Order Bride

Annie Price looked at the photograph again. Tears came to her eyes as she looked back at the sullen face of the man she had fallen in love with and only been married to a few short months, Jacob Price. Although they had lived in New York City, Jacob had contracted dysentery on a short trip to Charleston, South Carolina, and had never fully recovered. Annie had pleaded with Jacob to take it easy, but he had always had a problem listening to her.
Annie was glad Jacob had been able to make it back from his trip and that she was able to see him his last few days… but now she felt lost. It had been three months since Jacob had died, but everyday it felt as if it had only happened. Annie's friend all insisted she needed to move out of their house and find a new path in life, but the only thing Annie wanted was her husband back. Since she couldn't get what she wanted, Annie had a tiny thought plant in the back of her head.
A thought that grew larger by the moment...There was really only one thing to do: head west. 
Become a mail order bride and head west...
