After much talk the good people of the great Yorkshire centre, who seem to be pretty unanimous in their desire to marry their wives' sisters, passed a resolution to establish a local branch of the association for the repeal of the act. There were but two dissentients at the meeting. One of these, Canon Temple, made a long speech, in which he said that he had made special study of the question, and objected to any change on the grounds of reason, scripture, and expediency.

The shock to the system of any person who may be unfortunate enough to suffer an accident of this kind can scarcely be over-stated, and in all cases is calculated to inflict permanent inquiry.
