There is one ward in almost all the inmne

occupied by the men and Women who are the
vimims of broken promises of marriage. The

receptw'lcs are in the majority, because
woman lives more in her affections than dour
man, and laceration of them in her case in

some regions of this land thepromiso of mar-
