Red Tape at Marriage Exasperates
Kentucky BrfdegroOm.

Red Tape at Marriage Exasperates
Kentucky Bridegroom.
A well known kentuckian tells Of a
marriage ceremony that justice of
the peace in the Blue Grass State was
hurriedly called upon one day to per-
form.
1t appears that the bridegroom, big
mountaineer, very roughly dressed, had
brought his prospective bride with him
to the Office of the clerk Of the court
thinking to secure his license and have
the ceremony performed at one visit
When his license had been duly grant
ed the mountaineer asked if there was
justice of the peace then in the court
house who could tie the knot Upon
being advised by the clerk that he him
self was a justice of the peace and
that he was willing to join the two
lovers, the bridegroom said:
WAL, then; we're ready; go
ahead"
But you'll have to secure two wit
nesses," smilingly observed the clerk
and justice, before can proceed"
At this the mountaineer demurred,
saying that he did not care for wit
nesses. Nevertheless, he was convinced
in a moment that this Formally was
an indispensable one, and accordingly
the necessary witnesses were procured
and the ceremony begun. When the
couple had promised to love, obey, ETC.,
