Judge Grace rendered decision
Saturday, reversing former decision,

each case, not enough to appeal, and
there are large number of such cases
on the docket.
We have heard Of three weddings
which are to take place in the near
future, but refrain from giving the
names of the parties, as we might be
considered little officious. We will
say that one Of the prospective BRIDE

other never has been satisfied with a
negative, while the third has given out
that he is one of six heirs to fortune
