during

is
a
protest
against
the
weather

It

nothing

putrid.

Henry

Fi.sher,
oldest'

of
the
Archbishop

the
former
Felicity
Sutton,
as
they
left
the
Roman
Catholic
Church
of
the
Holy
Redeemer
in
London
after
-their
marriage.
Although
the
bridal
story
had
been
headlined
as
the
most
controversial
wedding
since
the
Duke
of
Windsor's,
there
were
only
a
few
onlookers.
The
Archbishop
of
Canterbury
is
England's
top
Anglican
clergyman.
He
was
not
at
the
ceremony,
which
was
performed
outside
the

and
without
the
formal
nuptial
mass.
