MADAME CAMA |
|
To Curb Her
Spirit
But how could that be done?
Marriage?
Yes, once married she could not be as free as she was.
So the father at last found a young man to become his son-in-law and to keep the
daughter away from politics! His name was Rustom K.R. Cama. He was a social worker and had
made a name in politics. He had faith in British rule. By profession he was a lawyer. It
is strange that a man of this sort should have agreed to marry Madame Cama knowing that
she was a lioness thirsting for' freedom. Truly he was a Rustom - a very bold man!
On 3rd August 1885 the marriage was celebrated with great pomp.
Just for two days there was a lull in the political activities of Madame Cama; on the
third day they were resumed. The father had bestowed the headache, with his daughter, on
the son-in-law. |
