Marriage of Katharine Angell and E B White

13 November 1929

I soon realized I had made no mistake in my choice of a wife. I was helping her pack an overnight bag one afternoon when she said, 'Put in some tooth twine.' I knew then that a girl who called dental floss tooth twine was the girl for me. - EB White
She was a divorced woman, but a conscientious mother with two children. I was six years younger than she. We finally went off and got married one day. - EB White
