Referring perpetually to the paper in his hand, Mr. Delamayn was especially careful in comparing that last answer with the answer given to the head-clerk.
“Quite right,” he said, and went on with his questions.
“The priest who married you was one Ambrose Redman—a young man recently appointed to his clerical duties?”
“Yes.”
“Did he ask if you were both Roman Catholics?”
“Yes.”
“Did he ask any thing more?”
“No.”
“Are you sure he never inquired whether you had both been Catholics for more than one year before you came to him to be married?”
“I am certain of it.”
