DUNMOW's FELICITY FLITCH
Ancient Ceremony Reyived-Oath
 Taken in Graveyard

From the London Graphic.
 The ancient ceremony of the Dunmow Fitlch, which for the last five or six years has been allowed to lapse, is at last to be revived Excitement reigns at Dunmow and preparations for the forth coming pageant are already in progress. The ceremony is one that has its roots in the historic past. It was during the reign of John-or so at least it is said that an award of two flitches of bacon was first made in the village of Dun mow to the two couples who were able to prove to the satisfaction of an inn partial court that their first year of married life was free from any shadow of unhappiness. They were required to swear that neither of them, "in a year and a day. either sleeping or waking, repented of their marriage The test, it will be admitted. was a severe one. Here is the oath administered:
 
 You shall sweare, by custom or confess
 sion,
 If ever you made nuptial transgression, Be you either married man or wife If you have brawls or entertain strife; or when the parish clerk said Amen, You wished yourself unmarried agen; Or, in a twelvemonth and a day, Repented not in thought any way; But continued true in thought and de- sire
 As when you joined hands in the quire. If to these conditions, without all fears, Of your own accord you will freely
 sweare,
 A whole gammon of bacon you shall re-
 ceive.
 And bear it hence with love and good
 leave:
 For this is our custom In Duninow
 knowne.
 Though the pleasure be ours, the bacon s
 your own.
 The oath had to be taken before the prior and convent and the whole town, the parties kneeling in the churchyard.
