〃Couldnt　we　be　married　privately　some　way？　Then　if　anything　happened　to　me　or　if　you　had　a　child。〃

〃Theres　no　way　to　be　married　except　by　church　or　state。　We　are　married　privately。　You　see；　darling；　it　would　mean　everything　to　me　if　I　had　any　religion。　But　I　havent　any　religion。〃

〃You　gave　me　the　Saint　Anthony。〃

〃That　was　for　luck。　Some　one　gave　it　to　me。〃
