Hargreaves. ge Remantie Courtsiiip The couitship of Mr. and Mrs. Bryan inciuded several incidents of the romantic fiction typa. She was only 17 when she met her fu- ture husband at the boarding school reception:” Later writing of that event, Mrs. Bryan said: th! sh “Only one ‘ asked, ‘Who is that tall fellow with | the dark hair and eyes'>” About the same timez Bryan singled her out of all the girls, and was presented. Later, with the consent of Miss Baird's mother they went riding. It was then the days of the horse and buggy. That little event of their courtship, however, was regarded as a serious infringement of the sehool's rigld discipline and the frate principal wouid not Ik to remain for the g exercises.
