Dear Ann Landers,
lease tell me how certain people can appear to be perfectly OK when they are clearly insane. Out sweet, innocent daughter was married last week to a mortician 12 years her senior. He courted her for over a year. One of the things that impressed her so favorably was this man's restraint and good manners. He never embraced her intimately nor did he try to talk her into sex, even after they were engaged. Last night they were married. This morning our daughter phoned-in hys-terics. It seems her wedding night was a nightmare. Her husband asked her to take a very cold bath before coming to bed. He suggested that she soak in the tub for about half an hour. When she came to bed he asked her to close her eyes and lie perfectly still. Then he said, "You may as well know that I am a necrophiliac as so many of my pro-fession are. I can only make love to dead women or women who look as if they are. Our daughter fled in panic, packed her bags and checked into another room. She is at this moment in a state of shock and under a doctor's care. Her physician has already agreed to co-operate in an annulment. I think the man is crazy. What do you think? SAN FRANCISCO
