no longer a young man, gave the
clergyman a good deal of trouble by
his stupidity on the occasion Of his
second marriage. He seemed to be
possessed by some spirit Of con-
trariety.

mediately replied: "Say this after
me-" Then, when the words he was
to repeat were given, he was stolidly
silent.

the minister was somewhat dis
turbed, and in the middle of the
service he upset the reverend gen.
tleman's gravity by volunteering
this apology:
"You see, sir, it's so long since ]
was married before that you must
excuse my getting these things
mixed"
