The form is very emple. With two wit. to be married
Mr. Sarah Mace was very ill with influenza. nesses, the couple wishing: prraent themselves before a sheriff-substitute That was in February, 1912, the time of the fa chambers.

Bride and bridegroom, 'Yes, my lord,' The judge then administers the oath to the attendant witnesses, and says-

And thus the whole ceremony is over. I bave known some curious incidents in CoDnection with such marriages. Some years in Glasgow, when the reserves were olled out to do service for their noxportedly

Many a hot tear ran down the cheeks of the girls during the ceremony, because they knew that they were to be no soner wedded that their husband were to be esparated from them-it might be for years, it might be for ever. The uncertain. iy of war might bring them widowhood or
