It depends on which type of report you use. Some automatically suppress the second instance
for the principals if they are husband and wife. If the report you are using does not, since
in this case the two Principals are male and female, you can add the <[M0]> to either the
Male or Female Sentence for Principals and eliminate the second instance of the Memo.
