Of their married felicity but little is known, perhaps for the reason that Tennessee, then living with his partner, one day took

occasion to say something to the bride on his own account, at which, it is said, she smiled not unkindly and chastely retreated—this time as far as Marysville, where Tennessee followed her, and where they went to housekeeping without the aid of a Justice of the Peace. Tennessee’s Partner took the loss of his wife simply and seriously, as was his fashion. But to everybody’s surprise, when Tennessee one day returned from Marysville, without his partner’s wife—she having smiled and retreated with somebody else—Tennessee’s Partner was the first man to shake his hand and greet him with affection… One night, when the pines beside the cabin were swaying in the storm, and trailing their slender fingers over the roof, and the roar and rush of the swollen river were heard below, Tennessee’s Partner lifted his head from the pillow, saying, “It is time to go for Tennessee; I must put ‘Jinny’ in the cart,” and would have risen from his bed but for the restraint of his attendant. Struggling, he still pursued his singular fancy: “There, now, steady, ‘Jinny’—steady, old girl. How dark it is! Look out for the ruts—and look out for him, too, old gal! Sometimes, you know, when he’s blind drunk, he drops down right in the trail. Keep on straight up to the pine on the top of the hill. Thar—I told you so!—thar he is—coming this way, too—all by himself, sober, and his face a-shining. Tennessee! Pardner!” And so they met. In at least one hundred words, describe how the theme of friendship and loyalty is developed in these excerpts.

The themes of friendship and loyalty are developed in these excerpts by the use of the infidelities. Tennessee had an affair with his partner's wife and she accepted him. However, she was also unloyal to him and she finally abandoned him to go with another man. The relationship between Tennessee and his partner is a ckear example of loyalty and frienship because even though Tennessee courted his wife they continue being friends, they had an affection that was unconditional. Tennessee's partner admired him and that feeling continued after his death.
