Notes When Amidas Link married he was not yet 21 and his bride was fifteen so consequently there were objections from his sweetheart's parents. Henry Link had an old mule named Beck, a fixture around Hickory Tavern for years. The intended bride made a trip to Catawba station. Dolph Abernethy took Henry's mule out by night and persuaded Andy Rowe to swap the use of his buggy horse for Beck. "Mite" Link drove through the county, while Esq. Henry Bruns went on the train with the license to Catawba and tied the knot good and fast.
