‘NOTHING VENTURE —’ CONDON, March 1!) A woman asking his consent to her marrying again, Afr Green, the magistrate at Tottenham Police Court, yesterday asked where her first husband was. YY’as he dead ? “1 don’t know,” replied the woman who added that she was married in 1913. On her wedding day her husband seemed somewhat preoccupied and ab-sent-minded. and in the* afternoon he said to her, “I am going to fetch a friend to our wedding party. I shall not be long.” She had not heard anything of him since. Mr Green: And now another wishes to make you his wifeP The YY’oman (shyly): Y’es, and 1 so wish him to he my husband. Air Green said she could not marry again and the woman looked very disappointed. AH Green: Nothing venture, nothing gain. If you like to take the risk Y’ou may he prosecuted for bigamy and then your defence would he that you had not seen your husband for 8 years. But, well, I must not say too much. The YY’oman: It is quite perfect. Afr Green: As near perfection as matters The YY’oman: I’ll take the risk. She left the court happy. . .
