Ruth had five younger brothers, and her Dat felt that moving was the only choice he had to make sure he could buy enough land for his sons to farm in the traditional way. When Melvin was only twenty years old his parents were killed when their buggy was struck by a speeding car as they were on their way home from a frolic at a neighboring farm.Īfter Ruth was married to Melvin, her parents took her younger siblings and moved to another state where they could buy more land to farm. They had no other family here Melvin was an only child, which was rare in an Amish family, but his Mama nearly died giving birth to him, and there were no more children. Their farm was doing poorly and Melvin found it necessary to lunchpail it every day to an Englisch owned factory to make enough money for them to live. She and Melvin were married less than a year earlier with the Amish community they were raised in looking on, and now this same community found it necessary to vote for a shunning because Melvin refused to accept the Ordnung after making his kneeling vows.

Ruth looked at her husband, kneeling in front of the Bishops and the Preacher, and felt a sense of shame course through her as the six week shunning was announced.
