MARRIAGE WITH DECEASED WIFE’S SISTER.
— - We take the following parody from the “ Referee ” : Beneath the spreading chosnnt tree The village smithy stands—With Mrs Smith it’s all U P, She’s gone to other lands. But he goes on Sunday to the church, And hoars her sister’s voice ; He leaves his scruples in the lurch, And she makes his heart rejoice. The morning sees his suit commenced, The evening sees it dune — Next day the parson ties the knot, And Pa and Aunt arc one.
