Some time ago in a letter to The Pilot we predicted that wedding bells would ring before the snows lay twice on the Cameron hillsides. Did that prophecy ring true? Not only one, but two wedding bells have rang, and snow has not as yet fallen. Now we prophesy that snow or no snow, wedding bells that have rang before will polish up and ring again.
“They do say” it looked like it Sunday night at church.
