The Topeka Daily State Journal Tuesday July 8, 1919 He Forgot Her Name. Man Who Applied for Marriage License Had To Refresh Memory. Mr. HARKINS, 65, Topeka, forgot the name of his prospective bride today when he applied for a marriage license. To refresh his memory, so clerks in the probate court say, Harkins walked out into the corridor of the court house, cleared his throat and casually asked Hermania UPPT, 48, Toeka, how she spelled her name. The information obtained, Harkins returned to the court room and the license was completed.
