A man aid woman were being tried on a chnrco of riotous conduct In Main street Glasgow. In tho Indictment In-dictment they were described as,man and wife, but from tle uvldonco offered of-fered tn the court It was more than doubtful whether they wero actually married. The presiding bailie, evidently evi-dently Hiisplclous that there was no such relationship between the pair, UBkert the woman, "Is this man (pointing (point-ing to tho male prisoner) your husband?" hus-band?" "Yes," was tho answer. "And," turning to the man, "Is this woman your wife?" "Yes." "Well, then," said his honor, who was well versed In the Scots law of marrlago, "whether "wheth-er ou were married heforo or not, you are now." |
