On a recent Sunday in Stratford (relates the local Evening Post), the padre was set a problem. He informed the congregation that he had been asked to publish the “ bonds ” of matrimony. He gathered from the letter the young man wrote that .what was wanted was the usual publication of the “ banns ” of marriage on the three Sundays before such marriage. Those among the congregation who had entered the married state smiled as the padre observed that there was a gopd deal of difference between the “ banns ” and the “ bonds ” of matrimony.
