NOVEL LAW SuIr snn,nul

Novel Law Suir.-A somewhat
romantic suit at law has Just been
terminated in franklin county. 1t
seems .ha: ;iie john Luscher became
pierced With the arrow Of Cupid, and.
wishing To heal the wound by lawful
wedloek. he made proposals to the
object Of his affections, which, it
seems, she received farorably; but the
father, Mr.. Jacob Wyar,, bcir.. a
prudent man Of much foresight, rcquir.
ed the said John Lcscher to enter in
to bonds ct h"e hundred dollars. con.
dltIoned that the said John Lcschcr
should live with his wife and treat her
as kind and afNetionate husband
should doj but the parties, after living
together some months, separated, and
tins suit was brought to recover the
amount of The bond. The case was
first tried at the last April term of the
Franklin court, when Judge kimmcl
decided the b"nd to be invalid. The
case was carried to the Supreme Court.
and it was decided that the bond swos
good and valid, and in accordance with
the law" The case therefore, came
up again in the Franklin county cou, Is,
when the jury found verdict for the
plaintiff OF 1919 7G. The res,,lt of
TINS suit may give valuable sugpes,
ton to anxious fathers whose daughters
a'c sought rs partners ut the altar.
