Angeline married Daniel Levins of Kidders Corners, Albion, Pa. She tired of him before marriage and tried to break her engagement to him, but he insisted that she marry him, and in his despondency, he climbed a hemlock tree in the woods and refused to come down. So, finally, she was induced, partially by others, to marry him, which she did, and lived in poverty, for he was shiftless and of no account. When he climbed the tree and refused to come down her (Angelina's) father remarked, "Let him die, damn him."
