lne complaining vile says, the defendant started
rom home, alleging that he had some business
that would require his attention for three weeks
lie did not return, and she was left in suspense.
Not hearing anything IRON him, she finally
came to the conclusion that he must have de.
parted this life. 1t appears, however, that he
came to Philadelphia, and worked in the Navy
Yard for several years, and boarded portion Of
the time at the public house of Mr.. Peter Bou-
vier, IN that section of the city.
In June, 1864, he was married by the Rev. Mr..
Clay to young woman residing in Penn's Neck,
N. j. This marriage ceremony was performed
IN the city OF Philadelphia. Since that eventful
period he has been living with his second wife
at Penn's Neck, occasionally visiting Phadel-
phia, and boarding temporarily at the public
house azores ald. BY some means or other un.
known, the first wife heard of his being In this
city. About week ago she arrived here, and
after considerable trouble, veXation, and dsap-
POihthOut, ROS Ou us UTHCk. Sne 00HC0 J0aJ ne
had been living somewhere near the Navy Yard.
She searched the entire vicinity, and finally
stopped at his old boarding-house, where she
made her business known. Mrs. Bouvier very
kindly gave her shelter and arrangements were
made to arrest the delinquent husband.
Officer William Sheer, of the police force,
knew the individual. He proceeded to Penn's
Neck, and left word there for Darypie to come TO
Phila delphia and settle board bill.
Yesterday afternoon he arrived and entering
the house of Mrs. Bouvier, desired to see his bill
for board.

shrewd business woman. Upon going to an
adjoining room, she returned in amoment bring
ing with her the woman who claimed him as her
husband.
Here is your bill, SIR" said Mrs. Bouvier, in
PRODUCING the wife. II was an interesting tableau
rendered doubly so by the appearance of an Off
Ger with warrant for his arrest. The prisoner
was dumb.
The parties at once proceeded to the office of
the magistrate and the hearing progressed.
The wife told her story. The Alderman asked
the defendant how long he had been married to
the second wife.

at the same time pointing to the little boy.
