She Signed the Wrong Name at the Altar—Now the Duke's Solicitor Says the Marriage Is Legal
She Signed the Wrong Name at the Altar—Now the Duke's Solicitor Says the Marriage Is Legal She was only the witness. Her sister was the bride. The church was full. The register was open. The quill was in her hand and the vicar was waiting and the second witness — the groomsman — was late, so they had found a substitute, a travel-worn man who had walked in twelve minutes after the service began and signed where he was told to sign. She signed where she was told to sign. Then she looked at what she had written. Her own name. Her full legal name, in the line that required the witness's signature, in a marriage register, in front of a clergyman who had just pronounced the ceremony complete. The man beside her was reading what she had written. He looked at her. She looked at him. Neither of them had ever met. The Duke's solicitor, consulted within the hour, confirmed it with the expression of a man who has seen a great deal and is still surprised by this particular situation. The marriage, he said, was legal.
