* This note was with the press before Goodburn v. Thomas Cotton Ltd. was reported in full in [1968] 2 W.L.R. 229. There the Court of Appeal dealt with some of the objections raised in this Note (which was not apparent from the abstract in The Times). Nevertheless, I continue to maintain that remarriage, with its inherent unpredictable elements, is too delicate and uncertain a matter to be considered in pounds, shillings and pence.
