Origin of "Grnss" widow.

"Why should a woman separated
from her husband be called Il grass
Widow asked a young man Of the
antiquary. The term grass widow"
the latter answered, has nothing to
do with the heritage on our lawns.
Grass is a misspelling, sanctioned 10y
custom. Of grace. In the past, when
divorces were rare, a woman separated
legally from her husband was called
'viduca de gratia' by the Roman
church, and the French called her
'veuve de grace The meaning Of both
terms is the Same-widow by grace
We took the 'veuve' from the French
and translated it properly into widow
but the grace we incorporated into
our language. miSspelling it in the
process. You would be technically cor
rect in writing grace instead of
grass widow, but it is probable that
no one would understand what you
meant. "-Philadelphia Record.
