divorce to Wrennetta Elizabeth Tilton from
the bonds of matrimouy with Peter Gilmore
Tilton, and giving her the custody of the
child. Her maiden name was Clark, aud the
parties were married secretly, against the op-
position Of her father, who was u resident OF
the City of Mexico, in Baltimore ut the Biddle
Street VI. E. Church, by Rov. W. II. Chapman,
under the respective names of Peter Gilmore
and Lizzie CLARK, residents Of Prince Georges
County, Nd. II was not ior some weeks after
that she learned under what names the mar
riage ceremony was performed, and, her
fathers consent being received subsequently,,
on the 29th of November, 1871, at the par.
sonage Of Trinity Church, another marriage
ceremony was performed by Rev. Thomas Ad-
Olson, when the proper names OF the contract
ing parties were used She alleged that con.
stant intOxlcation on the part of the husband
compelled her to separate from him and sup
port herself and child. Finally she went to
live with her father In Mexico, but returned
to her husband on his making promises to re-
form. But he fell into his old disso!ute habits,
and added adultery to his other faults, when
