BRIDEGROOM FAINTS
COLLAPSES THREE TIMES AT ALTAR BRIDE’S ORDEAL The excitement of getting married caused a young bridegroom, Mr. John Bather, to faint three times during his wedding at St. Mary’s Church, Nuneaton, England. “I had nearly completed the first part of the service,” said the vicar, the Rev. Frank Taylor, after the ceremony, “when Mr. Bather fell to the floor. He was carried to the vestry and revived; he then returned to the altar. “The end of the second part of the service was nearly completed when he fell to the floor again. “Once more he was brought round, but on the completion of the service collapsed for the third time. “The affair was very distressing, but the bride bore the ordeal with great pluck.” , The plucky bride was Miss Edith Hartshorne, a Sunday school teacher.
