but he went only a short distance Into
the opening. According to King the cave
is about twenty feet wide and is deep
enough to allow the tallest man to walk
without STOPPING. King believes that the
cave was built by Indians many years

able treasures when it is explored. There

this nineteen-year-old girl stood lonely
and disconso1ate on the deck. She gazed
sadly at the sllore Of her native land
and tears came TO her eyes as she
thought of leaving beloved England for
q new and to her unknown country. Mr..
Gibbs, catching sight Of the sorrowful
figure and of the streaming eyes. spoke
to a man who was to take passage on
the steamer and asked him to make the

man thus addressed was DR.. John r.

see the girl. but there is no evidence that
he entertained even then any feeling
toward her mere tender than that of
kindly interest. With the girl however,
1t was different. A deep. respectful, adj

Some months later the affair came to an

hence any and all such unauthorized

The opinion quotes from brigham
Young, Orsen Pratt, John Taylor and
other prominent church authorities, and
then goes on to say
I'm the light of these authorities, can

was only after my rights"
This court decision has led to a dis
cussion which has resulted In more light
on the mormon practice of sealing or
marriage. The mormons recognize three
kinds Of marriage ceremonies. The first
is the sealing for time, which corresponds
to the ordinary marriage ceremony. Then
there Is the sealing for time and eter-
nity-the adopted mormon marriage The
third is the sealing for eternity only.

asked that she be sealed" to him.
The learned educator was not so anxious
to enter these bonds. He was welded to
his profession and he desired no other
wife. In fact, Brigham Young was great
ly annoyed at him because he persisted
in devoting himself to his books and his
classes and refused to take unto himself
a wife. This match was arranged with
out his knowledge. Counselor Wells had
intended as had the bride-to-be, that the
sealing should be performed after tho
girls death. TIe went to Brigham Young
with the information that the girl was
dying and that she desired to be Sealed"
to DR.. Park after her death. President
Young Immediately sprang to his feet
and exclaimed: why not marry them
now: no time like the present"
A command from Brigham Young was
supreme law-it even meant q mandate
from God. Thus 1t was that when the
words Of President Young were brought
to DR.. Parks he had practically no choice

scented.

He was escorted into the darkened cham

already In the throes of death. Solemnly
Counselor Wells led him to the bedside
and placed thin, wan, almost 1ifeless
hand In his. With voices lowered in awe
of lowering death the words of the cere-
mony were said. The bride moaned al
most inaudible replies. Counselor Wells,
as priest of the Mormon church, there
upon pronounced John r. Park and Anne
Armftage sealed" not in wedlock on
this earth, but in a marriage for heaven
alone.
But Anne did not take her flight to the
celestial sphere. The ceremony proved to
be the turning point in her Illness.
Buoyed by the thought that she was in
deed the wife of DR.. Park, the man she
revered, she began to improve, and soon
recovered completely.
This was an embarrassing surprise to
DR.. Park. He desired the girls recovery,
but did not wish wife Nevertheless,
the girl he had befriended on an ocean
voyage and humored on her supposed
deathbed was in possession of a document
which read as follows:
