Ward obliges. But sometimes,
for
various reasons, he .doesn't.
v"We want a marriage license,"
said the boy, unnecessarily, when Mr.
Ward answered hia knock at the
door. The girl giggled.
She looked so small on the dim
porch that the register wondered if
she was to be the bride or if it was
to be one of the other two people still
in the car. Sometimes, very young
people, 'way under the age limits
apply for a license which of course,
must be denied.
In the bright light of his office at
the courthouse, however, Mr. Ward
saw that the bride-to-be was much
older than he thought her at first,
and the matter of drawing a license
got underway.
In the meantime an interested by
stander departed in search of a jus
tice of the peace and returned shortly
with T. E. Raper, who cleared his
throat, adjusted his glasses and said
solemnly, "join right hands, please."
The hands trembled, but got to
gether. The bride's brother and a buxom
girl friend witnessed the ceremony,
as did Ashley Fleetwood and a night
roving newspaper reporter. "Please
don't put it in the paper," the prin
ciples requested the reporter, "we
want it to be a surprise," and the re
porter promised he wouldn't.
The voice of the justice droned on
for a few minutes in the quiet room,
and ended with a very definite, "I now
pronounce you man and wife"."
The awed stillness lasted for anoth
er few seconds, and then somebody
laughed nervously. It was the bride's
girl friend. Then everybody laughed
and congratulations were in order.
Unexpected night weddings are
usually pretty quiet affairs in Hert
ford, but this one was on a Sunday
night rather early in the evening
and a good number of people had
gathered outside the courthouse. Best
wishes were shouted and as the wed
ding party headed south, there came
a terrific clatter of tin cans tied to
the car. Some jolly soul had decided
that this wedding was going to have
all the accessories.
And so they were married.
