FMARRIAGE,-A couple had been living to-
gether as man and wife in Philadelphia, for some
time. The gentleman perhaps becoming tired of
the incumbrance-reijlscd to support his roputcd
wife. She instituted a suit to obtain her share of
his worldly substance. The defence was, that
they were not legally married. 1t appeared that
no clergyman, or minister of law, officated at the
marriage ceremony; but that the parties acknowl-
edged themselves man and wife in the presence of
witnesses.
This Judge Sergeant decided to be a legal mar
rage and ordered the husband TO give security for
the payment of ten dollars per week for the sup
port of his wife, With this decision the husband
refused to comply and was imprisoned for contempt
of court He was subsequently brought before the
court, backed by an extraordinary combination of
legal talent, on an application for discharge. But
all to no purpose the judge was memorable.
The decision is not new. This Interpretation Of
the law was established in England many years
ago. and law providing for marriage in this form
was adopted in South Carolina in 1909, ain order
that none might be hindered in necessary
work." there being no ministers
