HER WEDDING DAY

Y ATE my breakfast standing, the car
was brought round, and by O'Clock
my father and 1 arrived at the house
of the high bailiff, who had to execute
the civil ceremony of my marriage and
fulfill the conditionrequired by law.
The high bailiff was on one knee be-
fore the fire in his office, holding a
newspaper in front of it to make it
burn.
Nobody else here YETI" asked my
father.
"Traa dy liooar" (tine enough), the
high bailiff muttered.
He was an elderly man of intemper
ate habits, who spent his nights at the
Grown and Mitre," and was appar-
emily out of humor at having been
brought out of bed so early.
His office was room of his private
house 1t had high desw, a stool and
a revolving chair. Placards were pin
ned on the walls, one over another, ana
Testament, with the binding much
worn. lay on a table. 1 thought the
place looked half like a doctors consult
ing room and half like a small police
court.
Presently Mr. Curphy. my fathers
advocate, came in. rather irritatingly
cheerful in that chill atmosphere, and,
half an hour late, my intended husband
arrived, with his London lawyer and
his friend Eastcliff.
My mind was far from clear and I
had a sense of seeing things by flashes
only, but I remember that / thought
Lord Raa was very nervous and 1t even
occurred to me that early as IT was he
had been drinking.
"Beastly nuisance isn't ito" he said
to me aside, and then there was some
thing about this legal fuss and fuddle-
ment"
with the air of man with a griev-
ance the high bailiff took a big book
out of the desk and a smaller one off a
shelf. and then we sat in a half circle
and the ceremony began.
