Love laughs at locksmiths, they say,
but the following clipping from a Bos-
ton paper in connection with the recent
Wilson-Mason wedding, would seem to
disprove the statement:
An amusing incident of the day oc-
CURED after the ceremony at the
church. The bride and groom were the
first to be placed in one of the wait
ing carriages, and the liveried coach
man cracked his whip. broke through
the crowd and drove at a smart pace to
the Mason residence in Clarendon
street. There another crowd of Curl
Gus people was waiting, held in check
by the police. When the carriage drove
up the street was cleared. 1t stopped
In front of the house and the curious
pressed forward to obtain what they
expected to be a fleeting glimpse of the
| bride and groom.
AS Mrs. Wilson stepped out of the
carriage her husband held the long
train Of, shers dress, but in the furry
1t got tangled in one of the carriage
wheels. 1t was extricated after sew
eral embarrassing attempts on the
part of the bridegroom and footman.
Then the young couple bounded up the
short flight of stone steps, and tried
the door. 1t was locked tight.
Mr. Wilson looked bored. Mrs. Will
son, however, promptly began pound
ing on the door. She kept up a con-
slant drumming, but. there was no re-
sDonse. The crowd on the opposite
side of the street looked on, and smart
men offered, suggestions and curious
women made comments.
Still the bride continued to hammer
On the door. but without getting any
response. The house was deserted
every member of the family and all
the servants were at the church. While
the bride pounded, some of them were
hurrying toward Clarendon street, and
the first to arrive climbed in through
a rear window and opened the front
door, but not until after Mr.. and Mrs.
Wilson had braved the stare and COM
ment of hundreds of curious Boston
ians for ten or fifteen minutes.
