It is said that after the death Of his first wife, the
Duk, Of Aosta was so much affected that 10 talked OF
entering a monastery. His sister, Princess Cloulde
was anxious to dispe all these gloomy ideas ana as
her daughter, the Princess Laetta, was bright high
spted girl she told her try and cheer up her uncle
some time after this Princess Clotidc, who haa no
idea that her daughter had formed any attachment 10
the Duke of Aosta, spoke TO her about MARRIAGE aiu
two or three persons were mentioned TO the young
princess who would not hear of anything of the son
At last her mother said TO her that she must make up
her mind: whereupon she admitted that she was al
acbcd 70 her uncle and that If she could not marry
him She would not marry any else. Princess 10
hide said nothing, but somehow or OtLcr INC sto,y
COT to tbe ears of the Duke Aosta, VINO said that ne
had formed great attachment for his niece o 'ha ma,
disnar,ty OF axe had made him keep Silent, as ne ala
NOT dream of her caring for him. The ice having Dse,
broken the Duke AOsta went to his sister, ana asEu
ber TO agree TO the marriage, which, SUBJECT 10 t9
NECESSARY dspensaiion from the Pope, she readily ui
Thus II viii be seen that the marriage Is purely one or
mutual affection.
