mission de proporcionarles un
marido en- la primera OCCASION
que sc presentase.
Ell metodo era de una delicio-
sa sencillez. Tn prisionero, aun
siendo un criminal o un ladron'
padfa obtener su perd6n y su
libertad casandose con una de
las solteronas. Fl prisionero ca

nor, que lie libraba del otro, y
Sc casaba.
