    When girls used to go visiting or to any town a lot of boys would watch them and often someone of them would bring a girl to his house and get married and not tell the girl's parents atal. When the parents would hear it they would have a great party or a dance and invite the girl and her husband. When they would get him inside they would tell him to go into the room for tea and two or three strong men would bring him somewhere and kill him and the parents would keep the girl.
