VINO died in April, 1921.
hese remarks may be anything but
easant Tor the new bride to listen
Almost One-third of the clergyman's
wedding talk will be devoted to the
memory OF Augusta Victoria-former
empress
The sermon, it is understood is di-
Nlded IN three parts based on the First
corinthians. thirteenth chapter. thir-
teenth verse The divisions deal first
with faith, secondly with hope and
thirdly with love
Iee passage dealing with love is al
most wholly devoted to remarks about
the dead empress. whose simplicity
Shd homely virtues won her the az
1ecton OF all of her people.
Fart of the text OF the sermon fol-
lows;
a great. grave hour has come in
winch your majesty and you, illustri-
union
1T is lot only a legal contract
Just concluded thru civil ceremony,
but 1t IS also close to Coda blessed
Everything that you two feel in
TINS sacred hour shall be blessed by
the trinity of faith, hope and love-"
me Clergyman then pointed out
that the Cor1nthian passage had been
used at the golden wedding of Will
helm's grandfather, then again at his
@wn (Wilhelm's) first marriage and
finally at the ceremony of the be-
trothal OF Prince EiteI Frederick, one
of the ex-kaiser's six sons

ing, both for those going and for him
who remains behind.
But you, illustrious bride, propose
at this house to remain at his side
We are gathered here to pray that
your remaining will be blessing in
every way"
Not much significance might be at
tached to this union if it were not
for the fact that there is a universal
feeling among German people. espe-
cially among the women, that the mar
riage of the former war lOrd-thiS time

in striking contrast with his lifelong
emphasis upon the sanctity of the mar
riage union Furthermore his mourn
ing for his first wife was more than
a little destinations.
The correspondent asked Dr. Nogel
whether he did not believe that en-
pnaSlS upon the memory OF NHS AAlC
kaisrin would jar upon Princess Her
mines feeling He replied:
That is all right. She will have
to keep quiet and swallow it"
The clergyman paused in thought,
then added: "Of course, I will have |
to consult the princess in advance. |
