children on pretense of going TO another to
put dld notreturn. SIX or seven years elapsed
and nothing being heard from the husband the
deserted wife believed him dead, and Contract
ed marriage with Israel 5. Burr. In the
cousre of time Dudley wrote to his WIFE inform :
ing her that he still hved that he left his family
'because he had a grudge against the town and
wanted TO compel II TO support his wife and
children" and that he had been to Cyahforn,a
Upon this information being received, the wife
applied for and obtained divorce from Burr.
