Dungeon Search for King John Jewels

THE Rev, O. R. Plant,

Rector of Rockingham, believes that the famous jewels of King John are hidden in Rockingham Castle.

Legend says the King lost his jewels in the marshy depths of the Lincolnshire Wath on his flight from his nobles in 1210.

Treasure hunters have spent many wasted years, thousands of pounds, searching the Wash.

Mr. Plant, armed with centuries- old' documents, every day for two years has explored

Children bind a marriage that might otherwise go wrong.

"Many married couples fear the coming of children. The husband fears them either because he does not care for children or because he cannot afford them,

"There are niso married prople who are averse to having children for fear the presence of a child should interfere with their love for each other.

These

arguments have been grossly exaggerated; children should be regarded as the best safeguards for happy wedlock."

Divorce is not the enemy of marriage.

"Easy divorce would be the best remedy for marital misfortunes.

"If two people find they have mude a mistake in marrying it is wrong that they should be tied for life.

"Divorce should be the means of preserving the dignity of marringe by pulling an end to unions that disgrace i
