Evanston Divorcees Married In Rensselaer Last Saturday.

Probably it will be a long time before Squire Dean is called upon to marry a couple who are larger in stature than a pair from Evanston, 111., who were granted a license here last Saturday. The groom was Otto Elmo Cagwin, a motorman, and the bride was Myrtle Estelle She was 35 years of age and he was 38. Both had been married before and divorced from their first mates. His divorce had occurred only the Saturday before. He was a very large man, being considerably more than 6 feet in height and large in proportion, probably weighing at least 250 pounds. She was a very large woman, also, and apparently in the 200 class. Either looked as though they should be able to take care of themselves even if the matrimonial voyage proved a rough one. Squire Dean breathed a sigh of relief when he could straighten his neck again after looking up into their faces as they said the “1 do’s.” i
