In marriage to Joseph Craig, Of Spring

of the other states had previously
done, prohibiting first cousins to
marry.
Mr.. Craig, who is well to do min
er of Springfield. and Miss Woodhouse,
who arrived in Springfield only last
Monday, came to the office Of Clerk
Lotion this afternoon and everything
was in readiness to receive the license
when the clerk found by questioning
them that they were first cousins.
This put an immediate stop to any
license or ceremony and the couple
after some consideration, left the
clerks office and will return to Spring
field to consult an attorney.
They will be unable to get married
IN Missouri, Illinois or any nearby
state for there are very few In the
union that has not such a law. The
Iowa law only went into effect on July
4 and 1t was for that reason that a
mistake was made and the trip to
