CHAPTER XXVIII

SHALL A SWEETHEART'S CONFESSION PREVENT MARRIAGE

Our question is followed by another: "Should a man let his sweetheart's confession concerning her past indiscretions prevent his marriage to her?"

The answer to that is easy so far as we are concerned: It depends wholly upon the man. It may not be so easy for the man to answer. If he insists that a woman should be better than a man, and he cannot overlook her indiscretions, he will be happier to find a woman with a happier past.
