ACURIOUS DIVORCE CASE.
singular Monomania in n Married Ms

From the ST. Louis republican, Jan.6l
A curious case came to trial in Circuit
Court Ne. yesterday. 1t is acase in which
ElIzabeth Brausr nee Lizzie Andrea, a nice,
with eighteen and q half summers smiling on
her plaeid brow, sues for q nullIty Of the mar.
rage vows pronounced between her aud

for about two years and brought the matter 70
nucleus alter years engagement by getting
married on Novem Der 10, lo67. in the church Of
ST Michael at the hands OF Father O'Brlen, a
Catholic priest. As his marriage drew near
Henry. W no seems to be of a nervous tempera-
ment, II Is allege", got little deranged in his
upper story. The oread OF plunge into the
sea of matrimony unnamed HIM. He thought
the wcrld and the Inhabitants thereof were
against him He acted most strangely, seme-
times talking II uently ,nippantly, and foolishly;
The ordeal of the customary preparation OF
going to confession before marriage in the
Catholic Church was too much for MIN. The
ceremony of marriage was more than he could
bear, and, as he signifies to q witness, "Fathe-
O'Bnen had sign. his death warrant" HIS
ride from church, he is reported 70 nave said,
was TO be his "last carriage ride" He was
afraid every body was going to Kill, 70 stab, to
poison HIM. Even the savory dishes served
up by bis affianced he deemed to b, poisonous /;
but like heroine she persisted in running the
venture and wedding hIm. In the early days
OF the marriage his strange mode of acting got
worse. He was frightened at every v trivial Ob.
Iect, and felt sure he was to be killed. Even
conductor on one of the Bremen cars was in
his "mind's eye" habited in woman's clothes TO
assassinase nIm. Every dish or goblet handed
10 him should be first tasted by his new bride
to assure him there was no poison 10 IL for
bin. Even Of the pills the doctor prescribe
for bis maiady she had to take two before he
would take the prescribed dose. He became g.
furious that ne had 70 be placed under arrest.
From this he was taken % the house Of his
father-ip-law and tended six weeks, then he
went 10 private lunatic asylum, whence he
hattie Asylum al Fulton, where he rsmaine 4
eight or ten weeks under care. When he re-
turned his "dear Eliza" refused to receive him
and fully convinced that the marriage was a
nullity she enjoyed herself at balls and parties
She represeed his reapproaches with yigor, and
even, it is alleged, used a billet of wood and a
butcher knife TO eject him from the house. The
testimony Is very voluminous, and most Of II
UNFIT tor publication.
