She Wed Own Uncle,
As Turkish Girls Do

NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-Because
American law does not permit a
woman to become her own aunt. pret-
ty little Mrs. Annie Ergas will lose
her husband.
Eight months ago. as Miss Ergas, Is
years old. she travelled to the United
States from a little village close to
the Dardanelles to Join her family. 1t
was a case of love at first sight when
her uncle, her fathers youngest
brother, saw her descend the gang
plank.
The parents smiled and agreed when
he asked her In marriage. The Otto
man law does not prohibit such an
arrangement and there Is biblical
sanction for it.
Four months ago the couple were
married by an alderman. Ignorant
that they had disobeyed the law here,
they lived happily together until two
weeks ago. At that time the Fedora
tion of Oriental Jews heard OF their
case and explained the situation to
them.
Then they were eager to right the
wrong. At the request of the fed

annulment of the marriage. This is
