CWsttino Kxt—>RDU»arv.-A few days
ago a pair of m»«® seemingly anxious to be
come united m »hs ‘liken bonds of wedlock,
made their appearance before one of the cler- j
tf jmen of Glasgow, who, finding ihe requia- !
ile certificates all right proceeded with the
ceremony until he came to that part of it where
the question is pot to the bridegroom if he "is
willing to take this woman to be his wifel”
To this necessary query, the man, after some
hesitation, answered "No!" "No!” ssid ihe
minister, with a look of surprise, "for what
reason 1 ’ "Just,” said the poor, embarrassed
simpleton, looking for the door, " because I've
taken a scunner (disgust) at her.” On this,
the ceremony, to the evident mortification of
the fair one. was broken off and the parlies
retired. A few days after, however, they pre
sented themselves before hi* reverence, and
the fastidious bridegroom, having declared
that he had got over his objection, the ceremo
ny again commenced, and proceeded without
interruption, till a question similar to the above
was put to the bride ; whon she, in return, re
plied in the negative.
