ton OF an English girl married to Frenchman
who has not fulfilled the obligations Of the
french laws on matrimony, which require his
name TO DE posted up In his commune before he
can be legally married at home or abroad. No
marriage in England should be permitted with
FTenchman unless he furnishes the celebrant
with certificate from his consul that all the
French requirements have been fulfilled. Years
ago was an attache at Frankfort. My princi-
pal business was to marry people. The cere-
mony was short one; no Clergyman was need
ed. All that was requisite was that the man
and the woman contemplating the holy state
should sign an affidavit that they knew Of no
legal impeachment, and that they were of age.
Then they signed second paper, gave me one
guinea for registration In the diocese OF the
Bshop OF London, their names were entered in
book and declared them married. The dream
OF many foreign adventures Is to marry rich
Englshwoman, and the number of aged Eng
llshWomen that married to young and stall
lice have black book, In which the lives Of ad-
venturers are chronicled Sometimes | would

transformed In the eyes of old Juliet into per-
secuted hero, and she rushed with augmented
the old things silnpering and Sinking when
asked to declare that they were OF age, as
though they expected me to doubt it. Once,
being In hurry, married Frenchman to an
English girl without having got any attesta-
ton that he had fulfilled ali matrimonial PIE
liminartes in his native land. A few days later
position-and it may perhaps serve as a warn
Ing TO English girls contemplating Gallo
chains-was this: the girl was married, the
no husband. The happy pair had gone to
Darmstadt to enjoy their honeymoon. OF l
went with the girls mamma to bring back the
Dllde. Luckily the Frenchman was man Of
honor. The girl was relegated back to her
mamma, the French legal formalities were full
filled, when we had second marriage. But
supposing that the bridegroom had been a
scoundre1, it was perfectly open to him to have
planted the bride on us, and to have remained
bachelor. Under these circumstances the
only PREPARATION that could have made would
have been either to marry her myself or 10
marry her mother, and thus become second
father to her; In either case dismal fate, for
the girl was very plain and her mamma very
