The Georgetown, Del. Messenger, says that some
time last week the wife of a man in Dagsborough
Hundred, left her husband, and with Young man
took up her residence in Millsboro The husband
made his appearance one day and the two men pro-
ceeded from the house and sat down upon a log and
calmly talked the matter over regarding it in all
It's bearings The result of the conference was that
the young man who was in possession of the wife,
agreed to give the lawful but injured and forsaken
husband, the sum of Seuen dollars and a do1 or his
wife. Thus was this difficult and dangerous bust
ness compromised to the full satisfaction of all par
ties concerned, and the former husband having
abandoned all right, title and claim in favor of the
lover, took his departure Immediately.
