I About twenty ycara ago there live'* in central Michigan a curio 1 Benedict named Dodsworth. age ol 50 he married a girl of -when the burden of 60 years bore him down his wife was only bait his age. Dodsworth was noted for his peculiarities, but the climax came when he found himself on his dying bed. He was worth about $30,000, and he hadn’t a blood relative living, so for as he knew. He wanted to leave his property'to his wife, as.the pair had lived very happily, but yet he could not leave it withont display ing some of his peculiarities in the provisions of the will. Some old men display a mean spirit when making their wills and draft in a provision cutting the wife off with a shilling, if she marries again. This old wasn’t of that stamp. His young wife was good looking, vivacious, fond of society, and it was folly to suppose she would mourn for her ‘‘late departed” any great length of time. Therefore Mr. Dodsworth turned heel on the usual custom and said in his will: “ In case my wife Celia doer, not take unto herself another husband within thirteen months from date of my burial ail bequests otherwise made in this will are to revert to the State of Michigan, to be used for building and furnishing a home for old women.” Whether Celia was pleased or dis pleased at this provision deponent saith not, but the old man had not been under the sod more than 6 months when the willow was said to be looking out for another man. If it was a singular.for the dying Dods< worth to urge his wife to marry again, it wa* still more singular that he should desire the ceremony to be performed under the following cir oumstances, vis.: “ And it in made incumbent on said Celia Dodsworth that in.taking s ttew ntau husband, the marriage ceremonyvshf^ Tie perinrmed in the big barn on my farm, on tlie H road. It shall take place at 10 o’clock in the evening, on the main floor, without lights of any description, with all doors shut, and a free invitation shall be extended to all. The clergyman shall stsnd in the stables nnd the bride and groom on the main floor, and the principal parties to the ceremony shall be dres sed in black throughout.” The widow announced her inten tion to faithfully obey in spirit and letter, llie will was probated and the twelfth mouth had scarcely passed before she issued an invitation for the public to attend a wedding at the big barn. Just who the groom was to be no one could positively assert, as the widow had been keeping conipa ny with a widower, a bachelor and two young men, and ns far as any outsider could judge she loved one as well as the other. Being good look ing and talented and having a for tune behind her, it was not strange that she should have a number of suitors. Siie seemed to enter into the spirit of the affair with great zest, as also iliil the minister; and to further mystify the people in attendance the bride entered the barn alone at one door, the grcom alone at; another, and no one knew that the minister had arrivrsd until his voice was heard in the stablos. There wore at least two hundred people present, and each one under stood that even the striking of a match would break the will. Many jokes were passed and considerable confurion existed, but at length the minister announced that all was rea dy. The ceremony was gone through with, and at its conclusion, the affair having been a “ profound success,’’ a rush was made for the bride; she was kissed by » hundred men, and was then carried home, a distance of a mile and a half, in a big arm chair. Now comes the mystery. When the lady was set down at her own door the widower, the bachelor and the two young men each elaimed to be hor true and lawful husband. None of the crowd could say who was the as also did both young u, % wan sure that be held the plump hand and was legally married to her. The four men had a fight, but that didn’t mend matters. The crowd ducked two of them in the creek, but that didn’t decide the question. Just how it would have terminated had not the widower been a man of nerve no one can tell, as the other three had already appealed to the law, when the widower stepped in and took bis plaee as husband and settled with the others for $2,000 each. One of the young men, now over 30 years old, and having all the wife he wants (she weighs 230 pounds), is living in J ackson, Mich., and, during an interview had with him, he sol emnly and earnestly assured the writer that lie was legally married to the Widow Dodsworth that night the big bain. Another of the parties lives in Clinton county, and ho has time and again asserted that he is the woman’s true and lawful husband, so help his God. The bachelor is dead, but were he alive and kicking he would renew his oft repeated protestations: “ I married her, by gum ! and, by gum, I ought to have her!’’ - ■ ■ ■ ■ • « ■■■■■ ■■■- To Have And to Hold.

JReli&b'Lw-" The .Atlanta Constitution. Several il iys ago a prominent Ep iscopal clergyman of this city was invited to one of the hotels, to inarry a couple from Canada. They did not want any witnesses, and they wanted the ceremony to be about one minute long. To this the reverend gentlc- ibjected. Under the laws of this a. marriage is no^ valid which is not witiiessea by ’two per sons. They were procured, and the couple struck an attitude calculated to show to advantage an array of fine clothes, and two rather good-looking faces, the owners of which wonld (so tlie marriage certificate stated, never ace their twenty-sixt birthday again.) The ceremony ran smoothly until the pledges were given. “ I, Kate,” continued the minister, “ I, Kate,” iihe faltered. “Take thee, William—’’ “ Take thee, William.’’ “To be my wedded husband—” “To be my wedded husband.” “ To have and to hold—” A smile puckered the couers cf her inoulh, which was finally extended in a hearty laugh ; no response. The minister was astonished at the un timely exhibition of frivolity ; the witnesses were highly amused, ami the would he bride-groom struggled to retai l his self-possession. “To have aid to hold,’’ repeated the minister. “ To have—Tel he ! lie!’’ and she hreke down again. A repetition of the former scene was broken into by the solemn and commanding voice— “To have and to hold—” “ To—” she began ; then indulged in a frenzy of mirth, which spread to all but the dignified and chagrined tier of knots. “ You think this is a very trivial matter,” he said sternly, “ hut I fancy you won’t find it-so funny if you in tend beginning life together in this ridiculous manner. I’ve a mind to punish yon by refusing to complete the ceremony, but on sesond t ought, I think it will be better to read yon a homily and then I will finish that which I have began, if I have to stay here till to-morrow morning.’’ " The homily was delivered, and the couple, no w quite serious, resumed their trying positions, aud vr- -*>ilv. married.
