Fears Hitch in Business Deal.

Magistrate Gluckman who issued
the license to wed Saturday to the
70 year old manufacturer of German
town, Pa. and woman of p years.
refused TO tell the names of the man
and woman, and not one of the minis
ters who are in Wilmington would
say whether he had performed the
marriage ceremony or not.
II is stated that. while the law does
not require a magistrate to make
public the names of nersnne who get
licenses, Gluckman must return a
copy of the license in this case TO the
county clerk today.
The man in the case. according to
Magistrate Gluckman, fears that his
son will hear of his marriage and
that this will interfere with -negotia-
tions now under way for the sale OF a
patent right in which both father and
son are interested. Arrangements
have been made to sell the patent
for about $4,000. and the aged
bridegroom thought his son would re-
fuse to sell in order to embarrass
him if he knew Of the marriage.
