When Mrs. Ilease tossed her ; bouquet into the crowd, Angeline ' caught it. Chris looked at Angel- -" ' V ing the bridal bouquet. i He had on his best suit, with a rose in the lapel. The setting was perfect so, without any hesita tion, Chris and Angeline decided to laake it a double weduin-day. j Along with the original bridal couple, Cinis and Angeline came into Pittsburgh and marched up to a startled clerk in the city-county building to get a marriage license. !
