went to London for the ceremony. =,
We wanted to be married in Paris.
Mr.. shoemaker said, but We FOUND
we could not conform TO the residence
laws there. Miss Goldman was pres
ent when we were married in Lon
don, where the marriage laws are not
so strict. We found In Paris that
if a hotelkeeper made a false affi-
dayit about the dsration Of residence
OF persons intending to be married he
would be put in jail. They are very
strict in Paris about some things.
