Tbe, excitement which, perhaps natur-
ally; precedes a Wedding Is responsible
for many strange vagaries on the pert
of bride and bridegroom. 11 18 only a
few melts since i the preparations for e
wedding near Birmingham were .all
Complete, when it.. was' found that the
bride was, missing. She had gone out
to purchase a pair of glovesSeand from
thatatime no trace of her could be dis-
covered. The police were informed, the
country for many miles around . was
scoured; but it was not until the follow -
Ing day thata police superintendent
while „driving overtook a woman, al-
most dropping from fatigue who proved
to be the missing bride. She had spent
the whole of Saturday night wandering'
about the nines, and when reecued, could
give no explanation of her movements.
