Crown Princess of Norway has the measles

June 1, 1935


Crown Princess Martha of Norway was "slighty ill today of measles," which she caught during her visit to attend the wedding of her sister, Astrid, to Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark, reports the Associated Press.   [Crown Prince Frederik married Martha's cousin, Princess Ingrid.]

Martha is married to Crown Prince Olav, heir to the Norwegian throne.

Did it really say Princess Astrid's wedding to Prince Frederik of Denmark? Shouldn't that have been Princess Ingrid?
