Other Information


      On 3 Feb 1922 the Dundee Evening Telegraph reported:
YOUNG SOLDIER'S LOVE AFFAIRS
"Marries" an Arbroath Girl
While His Legal Wife is in South
     Married to two women within five days.
     Such was the experience of Edward John Glanvill (25), a boilermaker, who belongs to Prenton, near Birkenhead.
     Before Sheriff Malcolm at Dundee today he pleaded guilty to having bigamously married Ivy Anderson, shop assistant, 47 Culloden Road, Arbroath, in 1916, and was sent to prison for two months.
     On his behalf Mr John Ross, solicitor, stated that the two marriages took place when Glanvill was only 20 years of age. He was serving in the army, and was stationed at Arbroath, where he made the acquainetance of Ivy Anderson, and they walked out together, and were intimate. Accused was sent to England, and there met the girl who was now his legal wife. There was no promise of marriage between him and the girl Anderson, so he courted and became engaged to the English girl. It was then that he received a letter from Arbroath telling him of Ivy Anderson's condition, and he replied that he would do what he could. He had just been married to his legal wife, when another letter arrived and revealed the Arbroath girl to be in a frantic state of mind, and in great trouble with her parents. Two days after his marriage accused left for Arbroath.
     He found both the girl and her parents in a terrible state. He should have had the courage to say that he was married, but when pressed he agreed to marry the second girl. He returned to England immediately after the bigamous marriage, but continued to send money to Arbroath. The illness of his legal wife and of his parents eventually made it impossible for him to send any money, and the matter was put in the hands of the police.
     There were strong circumstances here in favour of exceptional leniency. Accused was only twenty at the time, and was placed in circumstances that might well have upset mentally a boy of that age. By this bigamouse marriage the girl had suffered no additional wrong.
     Mr W.F. Mackintosh procurator-fiscal, stated that accused was stationed with the Welsh Regiment at Arbroath in 1915. The Arbroath girl was not aware that he was married at the time of the second ceremony, and went to England and live in lodgings with him some time before she learned the truth.
     Sheriff Malcolm thought the story was an extraordinary one - almost unique. When pressed by the girl accused had temporised instead of owning up, and had gone through a ceremony of marriage.
He was then probaby at his wit's end.
