Something To Look Forward To, Part Vi

...Though in closing, it must be said
they did not remain there for long.
A damned Yankee wed to a Reb?
The locals all declared it wrong.

Like many others they went west,
and made Colorado there home,
the family lives there to his day,
‘Abner’ a family name well-known.

…and ‘April’ too.
