that Wilbur, the butler, who is
a stand-in for the preacher, is
a notary public.
From this point onward, the
complications become more and
more amusing, involving Joan's
mother, Harold's fiancee, and
MI. Crouch, a lawyer.

DIES Mary Lou Frailey as Minnie,
Alta Cochran as Aunt Marian,
Wilma Mehling as Joan, Son
ny Heckenlively as Harold, Lyall
