Buggy Horse , by Ruth Hartzler.
Faith (Book 1)
For years, Nettie looked after her aged
mother Elma, a demanding woman who did not want any involvement
with the community.
Now that her mother has died, Nettie is
alone. She is regarded with suspicion by the local townspeople, and
has had no visitors from her community for some years.
Nettie’s buggy horse has gone lame and has
had to be retired, but Nettie cannot afford a new horse. Just as
Nettie is despairing about not having any means of transport, a
lost horse appears in her driveway, bringing with him far-reaching
consequences.
Daniel Glick is drawn to the lonely figure of
Nettie, but Nettie wants to be left alone.
However, when Jebediah Sprinkler tries to
force Nettie to hand over her house, Daniel springs to the
rescue.
As Nettie’s struggles mount, she has to
decide whether to take the law into her own hands.
And what will Daniel do when he discovers
the secret that Nettie is hiding from him?
About Ruth
Hartzler .
Ruth Hartzler’s father was from generations
of what people refer to as “Closed Open” or “Gospel Hall” Brethren.
Ruth’s mother, a Southern Baptist, had years of struggle adapting
to the cultural differences, and always cut her hair, which was a
continual concern to Ruth’s father’s family. Ruth was raised
strictly Brethren and from birth attended three meetings every
Sunday at the Gospel Hall, the Wednesday night meeting, and the
yearly “Conference,” until she left the Brethren at the age of
twenty one. Ruth still has close friends in the Brethren, as well
as the Amish, both groups descending from Anabaptists. Ruth’s
family had electricity, but not television, radio, or magazines,
and they had plain cars. Make up, bright or fashionable clothes,
and hair cutting were not permitted for women. Women had to wear
hats in meetings (what others would call church meetings) but not
elsewhere. The word “church” was never used and there were no
bishops or ministers. All baptized men were able to speak (preach,
or give out a hymn) spontaneously at meetings. Musical instruments
were forbidden, with the exception of the traditional pump organ
which was allowed only if played in the home for hymn music. Even
so, singing of hymns in accompaniment was forbidden.
Ruth Hartzler is a widow with one adult child
and two grandchildren. She lives alone with her Yorkshire Terrier
and two cats. She is a retired middle school teacher and enjoys
quilting, reading, and writing.
