married to her without his knowledge or
consent, Is stated in the Court records of

bed. While he was laboring under men
tai paroxysm and arrangement she pro-
cured license and minister, and
caused the union to be Gel -brated Of

PENDANT claimed TO be his wife. He de-
MED the soft impeachment, did not &C.

crecence TO her statement, nor was he

he examined the marriage records of the
county and found the union on record. 1t

not Only entitled to he famous for disunit
Ing married people against their Will, but
will soon be eminent for environine them
in the bonds of wedlock whether they will
or no.
