Morris' final decree was effective last Saturday. Miss Wightman said they slipped down to Ensenada, Mexico, last September and were married there. Under the California laws, Morris could not legally wed again until last Saturday. Photo shows left to right, Gouverneur Morris, Pola Negri, Charles Chaplin and Miss Ruth Wightman. FM 7-29-24.
