DR.. Savage on Divorce.
In his sermon on the ethics Of divorce, Rev.
Dr.. Minot ]. Savage, pastor of the Church
of the Messiah, said:

intention. I would not allow them to remarry
the next day. or the next week, the next
year 1 would have it at least two years.
and perhaps three, before they should be al
lowed to marry again. 1 would discourage
those who have simply taken fancy for
somebody else, and wish to get divorce
merely that they may Immediately remarry.'
Dr. Savage roundly criticized the New York
marriage and divorce laws
