I was reading thru some old post in the archives, and I got to thinking. I was reading the post titled, "Abby Borden".The writer stated "Many authers have made a big deal of her corpulence, I started wondering how in the heck she got so well nourshised eating such crap for food"(two day old mutton).
I started thinking the same way. As cheap and tight as Andrew was and eating two day old mutton, how did Abby get so healthy.
And I think that maybe, given her size, that that may have added to Andrew not thinking to highly of her. I mean, from everything that I have read, he basically married her to take care of Lizzie and Emma. So being heavy just made him distasteful to her.
