TIE rare ceremony Of diyorcing a

ing TO the requirements of the old Mo

The ron@ns husband was killed by
tramps last summer. She had no chill
dren, and the old law Of the orthodox
Jews is that in such case tho dead
mans eldest brother Is 70 marry the
widow and raise up childron in tho name
of tho deceased. The widow, however,
did not desire 20 marry her husband 8
brother, nor be her. Accordingly she
must be divorced from her dead mate.
This ceremony can only be performed
By two orthodox Jewish rabbis acting in
conjunction.
