Eighty Three Couples Took Out

ago, Wnen only 5Z llceNses-At the rate OF
one per week-were applied for at Judge
Dorval's bureau of marriages. The list
for 1897 shows an issuance of SO certifi-
Gates, an evidence that its easy enough
to break Leap Year record up here in
Cavalier county. The number OF batch
lors has been visibly decreased and the
dominle's pocket book correspondingly
fattened. The months OF March, July,
November and December indicate rs be-
ing the periods when the epidemic was
the severest and Langdon and Olga
seem to have been places most generally
resorted to when an operation was found
necessary to effect cure. This year
again Rev. Dougan leads as the most
popular adjuster OF the hymenal moose,
with Rev. Pouliot close second. Justices
Dawson and Erickson each officiated as
master of ceremonies on one occasion,
also Judge Dorval. The list only re-
cords marriages in cases we're licenses
we're taken out in Cavalier county and
does not include cases in which the
modest and blushing groom HE'D himself
to the four corners of the earth to fool
the man who is supposed to have nose
for news-a la Mccarthy.
