 The young people evidently did not know of the Connecticut law that pro- hibits the issuing of marriage licenses to persons under 21 years of age, so when Miss Belcher told Town Clerk David Flagg that she was IS that off, cial had to refuse to issue the docu- ment Harry and Lulu left the office deeply disappointed.
 They must have put their fertile brains to a special emergency test, however, for later in the day MT Flagg received telephone call from Fitch burg, and the man who talked over the wire said that he was MT. Belcher and that he understood that his daughter had run away to Putnam to be mar ried. The voice gave permission to MT. Flagg to issue the couple a marriage license and urged him to tell the happy pair to come home as soon as possible after the marriage ceremony had been performed as all would be forgiven.
 Accordingly when the pair again ap- peared at the town clerks office Mr. Flagg issued the license, MT. Belcher having promised over the telephone to send his written consent by mail.
 The couple after getting the license were married by Rev. F. D. Sargent.
