Mail Order Bride, Part 1: Train Ride

Pairing: Sheriff!McCoy x Paige Stone (OFC). Other characters: Deputy!Jim Kirk, Bartender!Scotty, Jed Matthews, Zeke Wilson, William Cooper, Thomas Morgan (OMCs)

Word Count: 2546

Warnings: As the title implies, mail-order bride arrangement, parent’s illness, outlaws, Wild West-level violence but some fluff as well. Each chapter will have individual warnings as needed.

A/N: This is set around the 1930′s in the Western U.S. I will endeavor to remain as true to the historical timeline as I can. There may be some....bending of history to fit the narrative, but nothing major. This is, after all, a work of fiction. :) Enjoy and please let me know if you’d like to be tagged in future chapters!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Seventeen hours. That's how long Paige Stone had been on the train to Colorado, with the last stop having been somewhere near Fort Collins for supplies. The train would continue on to the West Coast, ending up around Portland, Oregon. Paige left her hometown of Columbus, Ohio five days ago. Her final destination was set to be Boulder, Colorado, where she was to meet her future husband.

Paige was a bit nervous about meeting the man she would marry within a week of arriving in Boulder. Her parents had taken care of the business end of things, beginning with a reply to an advertisement in The Columbus Dispatch. The ad indicated a man was seeking a wife, someone to be in charge of the household while he tended to the crops and livestock.

The ideal candidate was said to be a woman with cooking, cleaning and sewing skills. A literate woman was a plus, but not a requirement. In addition, she would be expected to bear children to carry on the family name. For Paige, a love match was, of course, always a goal, but she wasn't going to get her hopes up too far. This was a business arrangement, with the fee being wired to her parents upon the conclusion of the ceremony.

Before the deal was put together, there was a young man named Thomas Morgan who had been spending time with Paige. Some might have considered them to be courting, what with them going on walks in town, and Thomas bringing flowers or gifts for Paige. Then one day, it all stopped, without further word from Thomas or his family. A few weeks after, Thomas was spotted in the company of Abigail Forrester, who was seen wearing his mother's ring on her left hand.

In a family with eight children, money was tight, and Paige's mother had regular bouts with illness. As the oldest, Paige would normally have gone to school or gotten married. The family couldn't afford to send her to school, and she had lost Thomas' favor. Thus, an arranged marriage was determined to be the best option. Her parents had also told her it was "for the good of the family" that they were going through with this deal.

Paige didn't know why they thought that, especially because it meant that she would be moving far away from everything she'd ever known. She would be isolated from her friends, her family, anything remotely comforting and familiar to her by doing this. But Paige knew her options were limited in Columbus, Ohio, so she agreed to move out West.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Would somebody mind telling me just what in the hell happened here?" Sheriff Leonard "Bones" McCoy asked.

Jed Matthews was lying on the floor, dead, with two bullet holes in his chest. The bartender, Scotty, told the sheriff's deputy, Jim Kirk, that Jed was shot while playing poker. One of the other players, a man named William Cooper, had accused him of cheating. Jed, of course, denied it then took his pistol out of its holster and laid it on the table. His hand never left the weapon, but Cooper was unfortunately not intimidated by Jed whatsoever.

An argument ensued, and at one point, Jed tried to scoop up his winnings from the table. Two shots rang out immediately afterwards, with the slugs embedding themselves in Jed's chest. His fingers brushed over the wound and came back bloody. Then Jed slumped out of his chair and hit the floor. Minutes later, Jed's eyes rolled back in his head, then when his last breath left his lungs, he was still.

Sheriff McCoy turned to Kirk. "What was the argument about after Jed was accused of cheating?" he asked.

"Jed said something about how he needed the money for a wedding. Said he was getting hitched to a gal from out East that was taking a train ride to get here. S'posed to be meeting her sometime this week, possibly even today. The money was for the new missus' family," Kirk explained then gave the sheriff a puzzled look. "A mail order bride?" Kirk questioned.

"Still happens in some places, Deputy Kirk, it's not all that unusual. What else?" McCoy demanded.

"Cooper said he didn't care what Jed needed the money for. He said it wasn't Jed's to claim, since he'd been called out for cheatin'. Jed drew his weapon and reminded Cooper that he was just a visitor, didn't have any standing. That it was Cooper's word against Jed's about the cheatin'. Then Jed reached for the money, got shot and now he's lying dead on the floor," Kirk finished.

Three members of Jed's gang were standing off to the side, trying to figure out what to do next. It was a safe bet that each of the men was thinking about how he could take over as leader. And that he would have to do it before the one of the other two could do it first. They were also silently deciding among themselves how much to tell or not tell the sheriff, and the consequences of said decision. The three men from Jed's gang started inching towards the door.

"You hear what Deputy Kirk said, boys? Sounds like ol' Jed was holding out on us," Zeke Wilson remarked quietly. He considered himself to be the one most likely to take over as leader of the gang. He was interested in hearing more about Jed's missus-to-be, if she was pretty and willing to share his bed now that Jed was dead. If not, he figured, maybe we can find some other use for her, he thought, grinning to himself.

Sheriff McCoy took a deep breath and exhaled. "All right, nothing more we can do here, Deputy Kirk. You'll need to stop by the undertakers and have them send someone over to collect the body for burial," he ordered. His attention shifted to the men hovering by the door. "You three, I ain't done with you yet. I may have some questions, so none of you leave town," Sheriff McCoy commanded. He was sure to make eye contact with each one so they knew he meant business.

"Oh, we wouldn't dream of it, Sheriff. Would we boys?" Zeke replied. Sheriff McCoy rolled his eyes as he exited the saloon. As soon as the sheriff was out of earshot, Zeke turned to the other two. "C'mon boys, let's head down to the train station and see if there's a pretty li'l thing waiting for Jed," he sneered.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Paige felt the train decelerate and finally come to a complete stop at the station. Steam hissed from underneath the train as it reached its destination. Paige stood up from her seat to collect her small suitcase from the overhead compartment. Her steamer trunks had been stowed in the lower storage area, and would be unloaded then placed on the platform for her to collect.

As Paige descended the steps from the train, she first noticed how blue and cloudless the sky was. Back home in Columbus, she would've had to travel to the edge of town for a view like this, uncluttered by tall buildings. There was a light breeze that kept the wildflowers swaying back and forth, their scent gently wafting over the area.

A steamer trunk was offloaded from the train's lower baggage compartment and placed on the platform to be claimed. The contents of the trunk represented Paige's whole life: her clothes and shoes, mementos, photographs and her beloved books.

When Paige was not helping her father look after her mother and siblings, she was lost in the written word. Science, philosophy, romance, languages, basically anything she could get her hands on is what she would read. She loved reading bedtime stories to her younger siblings and answering the endless questions from her middle siblings.

Paige looked around, trying to find the man who was supposed to meet her at the station, her soon-to-be husband. Most everyone she saw on the train had been met by loved ones or had left on their own. She was about to ask the station manager if he knew of her intended spouse, when she was approached by three men.

"Hey there, pretty lady," the one in the middle drawled. "Where you goin' in such a hurry, sweet thing?" he said as he looked Paige up and down.

Paige's throat grew dry as the desert, so when she tried to respond, it came out as a squeak. She decided her best option for the moment was to ignore the men. She picked up the pace as she turned on her heel and walked to the station manager's booth.

"Well, wouldja look at that, boys. Seems we got ourselves a little mouse from the city over here. Hey, I'm talkin' to you, City Mouse," the man spat. "Ain't good manners to ignore someone when he's tryin' to get your attention," he pointed out.

By this time, the man had intercepted Paige, took hold of her arm and pulled her close to him. "Or do you think you're too good to talk to me," the man sneered. His face was dirty and he reeked of tobacco and alcohol. Paige tried to push the man away and free her arm from the man's grasp, but he wouldn't let go of her.

"ZEKE WILSON!" a man behind her roared. "Let go of the lady's arm, or you'll find yourself in an even bigger heap of trouble," he threatened.

The man was tall, with a neatly trimmed beard, his nearly raven-black hair sticking out from the bottom of a wide-brimmed hat. He was wearing brown pants with suede chaps, a patterned cream-colored button-down shirt, a bandanna around his neck. He was carrying a long rifle, and around his waist was a belt with a holster containing silver pistols with a wood-trimmed handle. Above the left breast pocket of his brown leather vest was a silver star emblazoned with "SHERIFF" in black letters.

The man named "Zeke" released Paige's arm as ordered, and when she rubbed it, she could feel a bruise starting to form. "Sheriff McCoy, fancy seein' you here," Zeke replied. "Ain't you got some work to do over at your office, on account of Jed Matthews being dead?" he asked.

"Jed Matthews is dead?!?" Paige gasped.

The sheriff turned towards Paige and tipped his hat in greeting. "I'm awful sorry for you to find out this way miss, but yes he is. Did you know him?" he inquired.

"He-he was--I mean, I'm here to--" Paige stammered.

"It's all right, darlin', let's get your things and head on over to my office. We can talk about it in private over there," Sheriff McCoy suggested. Paige nodded, her thoughts in a jumble after hearing about the fate of her mail-order husband. With his hand on her upper back, Sheriff McCoy guided Paige from the train platform and over to his office.

Once there, Deputy Kirk was tasked with retrieving Paige's steamer trunk from the train depot, then returning to the office. Sheriff McCoy brought Paige into his office and gestured for her to sit in the chair in front of his desk. "Now, what is it you were trying to say back at the station? You know, about your business with Jed Matthews?" the sheriff prompted.

Paige swallowed audibly before answering. "My name is Paige Stone, and Jed Matthews was supposed to be my husband. My parents answered an advertisement in The Columbus Dispatch, where a man was trying to find a wife," she responded. "I was sent a train ticket, and well, here I am. But now that my soon-to-be husband is d-dead....," she trailed off, tears threatening.

Sheriff McCoy took a moment to study the woman in front of him. Paige had warm hazel eyes behind a set of gold wire-rimmed glasses. He could see her light chestnut-brown hair pinned up, but some was peeking out from under her Victorian traveling hat tied under her chin. She was wearing a long-sleeved pale blue cotton dress with a miniature floral pattern. Her hands appeared delicate, but the sheriff could see that they were no stranger to a good day's work.

McCoy thought she couldn't be more than twenty or twenty-one years old, with her whole life still ahead of her. He couldn't figure out why such a lovely young woman would subject herself to an arranged marriage, especially with someone like Jed Matthews. His last thought must have been spoken aloud, because the sheriff heard Paige's soft giggle, despite the situation.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to say that part out loud," McCoy admitted. "But if you don't mind me askin', why did you agree to marry him?" he inquired. "He and I crossed paths many times. Jed Matthews wasn't exactly the most upstanding citizen in Boulder."

"In his advertisement, he said he was looking for a wife to be in charge of the household while he tended to crops and livestock," Paige mentioned. "It also said he wanted someone with cooking, cleaning and sewing skills, and to b-bear children to carry on the family name."

Sheriff McCoy let out a bark of laughter. "J-Jed Matthews wanted a live-in maid that he could take 'liberties' with, if you'll pardon the expression, miss. The only 'crops' he tended to was rollin' dried tobacco for his cigarettes," he noted. "So your folks answered a newspaper ad and shipped you off lock, stock and barrel?" McCoy asked.

Paige nodded and explained the family's situation. She talked about the issues with her mother's health, having too many siblings and not enough money to go around. "My parents decided that this is what was best for the family. With the money from the marriage contract, they would be able to take my mother to a medical specialist. Hopefully, he would be able to determine what was causing her condition and either cure her or help her manage her life better with it. But without that marriage contract, I don't know what I'm going to do now," Paige's eyes were once again filling with tears.

Sheriff McCoy's gaze softened when he saw Paige's tears. He found that he admired the young lady for having the courage to go through so much for her family. She had traveled by train across the country alone, leaving behind everything and everyone she'd ever known. Just to marry a man she'd never met in person before. All for the sake of her mother, so she could afford to pay for medical treatment. Sheriff McCoy couldn't recall meeting too many people in his life who had that kind of courage let alone compassion. When he thought more about it, something stirred in his heart.

There was no doubt in the sheriff’s mind that Jed's intentions towards Paige would've been of a less than honorable nature. He shuddered to think what would've happened if Jed were still alive and this farce of a marriage was allowed to stand. Or worse, one of Jed's men decided to step up and claim the contract and the lovely Miss Stone. At this point, there was only one thing he could do. "Miss Stone, I believe there's only one solution to your problem," Sheriff McCoy announced.

Part 2 Here!

Manson Family Murders Fast Facts

(CNN)Here is a look at Charles Manson and the 1969 Manson Family cult killings.

Death date: November 19, 2017

Birth place: Cincinnati, Ohio

Birth name: Charles Milles Maddox

Father: Father’s name unavailable publicly

Mother: Kathleen Maddox

Marriages: Rosalie Jean (Willis) Manson (1955-divorce date unknown); was also married to a woman named Leona in the early 1960s, whose last name is not publicly known.

Children: At least two: with Rosalie Jean (Willis) Manson: Charles M. Manson Jr. (1956-1993); with a woman whose name is not publicly known: Charles Luther Manson.

Other Facts: Reportedly, during his childhood, Manson’s mother sold him for a pitcher of beer to a woman who wanted to have children. His uncle had to find the woman so that he could get his nephew back.

He later took his stepfather William Manson’s last name.

According to the California Parole Board, Manson had a history of manipulation, controlling behavior and mental illnesses which included schizophrenia and paranoid delusional behavior.

The killings inspired the best-selling book, “Helter Skelter,” written by prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi.

Timeline: 1947 – At age 12, Charles Manson is sent to Gibault School for Boys in Terre Haute, Indiana, for stealing. Over the next twenty years, he is in and out of reform schools and prison for various crimes.

March 21, 1967 – Manson is released from prison. He tells the prison officials that he doesn’t want to be released, “Oh, no, I can’t go outside there…I knew that I couldn’t adjust to that world, not after all my life had been spent locked up and where my mind was free.” After his release, he moves to San Francisco.

1967-1968 – Manson meets Gary Hinman, a music teacher who introduces him to Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys.

— Manson attracts a group of followers. The group moves to the Spahn Ranch, outside of Chatsworth, California.

— Dennis Wilson introduces Manson to record producer Terry Melcher, the son of actress Doris Day. After initially showing interest in Manson’s music, Melcher declines to work with him further.

— Melcher later moves out of his home on Cielo Drive, and the house is then leased to film director Roman Polanski and his wife, actress Sharon Tate.

July 1969 – Gary Hinman is killed by Manson follower Bobby Beausoleil, accompanied by Manson Family members Mary Brunner and Susan Atkins. The murder is committed at the behest of Manson.

August 8-9, 1969 – At Manson’s command, a small group of his most ardent followers brutally murder five people at the Benedict Canyon home of director Roman Polanski, near Hollywood. The victims are Polanski’s pregnant wife, actress Sharon Tate, writer Wojciech Frykowski, coffee heiress Abigail Folger and celebrity hair stylist Jay Sebring. Also killed is Steven Parent, who was a friend of the family’s gardener. The murders are committed by followers Tex Watson, Susan Atkins, and Patricia Krenwinkel. Linda Kasabian accompanies them as a lookout.

August 9-10, 1969 – Manson, displeased at the sloppiness of the previous night’s murders, accompanies a group of followers on a search for victims. In the car are: Watson, Atkins, Krenwinkel, Kasabian as well as Leslie van Houten and Steve “Clem” Grogan. After several hours, the group comes upon the house of supermarket executive Leno LaBianca and his wife, Rosemary. The couple are brutally murdered by Watson, Atkins, Krenwinkel and Van Houten.

October 1969 – Manson and his followers are arrested at another remote location, called Barker Ranch, on suspicion of auto theft.

November 6, 1969 – Manson Family member Susan Atkins, already charged in the murder of Gary Hinman, tells inmate Virginia Castro that she killed Sharon Tate, “Because we wanted to do a crime that would shock the world, that the world would have to stand up and take notice.”

November 12, 1969 – The LA Sheriff’s detectives interview Al Springer, motorcycle gang member who had some association with Manson. Springer tells them that Manson told him about killing people days after the Tate murders.

November 16, 1969 – The LAPD interviews inmate Ronnie Howard about her conversation with Susan Atkins concerning the Tate/LaBianca murders.

November 18, 1969 – Deputy District Attorney Vincent T. Bugliosi is assigned the case.

November 30, 1969 – Watson is apprehended in Texas. His lawyers fight extradition to California for nine months.

December 8, 1969 – Manson, Watson, Atkins, Krenwinkel and Kasabian are indicted for the murders of Sharon Tate and her friends. The grand jury also indicts the five, plus Van Houten, for the LaBianca murders.

June 16, 1970 – Trial begins for Manson, Atkins, Krenwinkel and Van Houten.

— Manson appears in court with an “X” carved into his forehead.

— He defends himself in court with the help from attorney Irving Kanarek.

August 1970 – Kasabian is given immunity in exchange for her testimony against Manson and the others.

January 15, 1971 – After a seven-month trial, jury deliberations begin. The jury finds all the defendants guilty on January 25.

March 29, 1971 – Manson, Krenwinkel, Atkins and Van Houten receive the death penalty.

1971 – Charles “Tex” Watson is found guilty of the murders of seven people and is sentenced to death.

1972 – The death penalty is abolished in California. The sentences for all Manson Family members are commuted to life in prison.

April 11, 2012 – Manson is denied parole for the 12th time. According to the California Parole Board, he has accrued 108 serious disciplinary violations in prison since 1971 and has shown no remorse for the murders. Manson’s next parole hearing is set for 2027, when he will be 92.

November 20, 2013 – A 25-year-old pen pal, who calls herself “Star,” tells Rolling Stone magazine that she considers Manson her husband. The imprisoned cult leader says, however, that Star’s story is “garbage.” She began sending letters to Manson when she was in high school.

November 18, 2014 – Sources tell CNN that Manson and Star have, in fact, obtained a marriage license.

February 2015 – The wedding is called off, according to tabloid reports.

June 6, 2015 – Manson prosecutor and author of “Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders” Vincent Bugliosi dies in California.

December 2016 – California parole board members delay their decision on freeing Krenwinkel after her attorney raises claims of abuse by Manson, or another member of the cult. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation issues a statement that the information presented at the hearing does elicit cause for an investigation.

June 22, 2017 – Krenwinkel is denied parole for the 14th time. She will be eligible again for consideration in five years.
