why did not Henry give his sister
away in marrsage2' When Mr. Hall
and Mrs. Hall were married Henry
WAS in New England. There was
nothing in common between Henry

made no special effort to attend the

Among many reasons given for
favoring the civil marriage is the de-
sire to avoid publicity by contracting

dukes. peers, theatrical stars and
other prominent persons when re-

English brides of the past genera
