She Cleared the Way.
Here is the story which the Green's
boro Record tells of tears, a search
and marriage license. 1t says:
"a man and a woman and a small
boy walked into Register of Deeds
Kirkman's office this afternoon and
asked for a marriage license. They
were no doubt of age. and the license
was being prepared when the lad took
a hand at the bat. With tears in his
eyes and in his voice he said the man
about to be married was his father
and that the woman he was about to
marry had a husband living. This
stopped proceedings as quickly as a
Japanese bomb. and Abe Kirkman took
a pull at his nose as he dropped his
pen in hand. The woman said she
had been married. but had been di-
vorced and was free to wed. but Abe
insisted that it must be proven. Then
the clerk of the court went over his
records and found that the story was
true--she had been divorced only a
term or two of court ago and was free
to re-marry if she saw proper, and
she saw for the license was pro-
cured and the two were made one.
