Probably The Institution Of Marriage Had Its Origin In Love Of Property. Both Men And Women Were United In This--that Whatever They Loved Best, They Wished To Possess. The Usual Theory Holds That The Communal System Would Not Permit The Gratification Of This Desire At The Expense Of Communal Rights, And That Therefore Men Were Driven To Gratify Their Passion By Purchasing Or By Capturing Women From Neighboring And Hostile Tribes.
