A case which has attracted consid-
cradle attention in Paris has now been
decided in the Midi district, the scene
of the recent winegrowers' troubles.
1t was the arraignment of Monsignor
de Because, Bishop of Carassonne, who
was charged with celebrating relig-
ious marriage without civil marriage
having been previously performed.
The circumstances which led to this
attraction of French marriage laws
were peculiar, civil marriage being
out Of the question, owing to the strike
of the municipality and Of all local
registration officers.
The father of the bride made every
endeavor to get civil marriage per-
formed, and the bishop came to the
conclusion that under these exception
al circumstances he was Justified in
celebrating religious marriage, for
which charitable action the govern.
iment promptly prosecuted him.
A fine of $40 was imposed. but with
the benefit of the law Of respite, which
was a partial discontinue for the gov
eminent prosecutor, who, while rec
ognizing the peculiar circumstances in
which the bishop had acted, demanded
nevertheless sentence without benefit
of respite.
