The bride's mother-in-law-to-be gave a lond shriek, and the ceremony was stop- ■ ped while members of the wedding party chased the monkey. The monkey (says the Paria correspondent of the "Daily Chronicle") took refuge in the- pulpit. There it was captured by the verger, who restored it to the owner.
