THE ENGAGEMENT
Claudia Taylor, at age 21, was visiting at the home of a friend in Austin, Texas, when the lanky secretary of a congressman dropped in. The secretary invited Claudia to breakfast the next day. She listened with such enthusiastic interest that he decided to make a day of it with her. Before nightfall, he proposed marriage and she accepted! During the wedding ceremony, young Lyndon pressed upon the finger of his young bride a $2.50 ring purchased at Sears, Roebuck, and Company.
That may sound like a marriage destined for failure, but that’s the true story of how Lyndon B. Johnson first met Claudia “Ladybird” Taylor. Their marriage was of storybook proportions.
