House. Mrs. Drake of Kenton, when
Miss Wilds, married man by the name
of Drake, they lived IN harmony for a
few months. He without any reason de-
serted her. She petitioned the Legisla-
ture and received TO day freedom from
him who is now living in state of
adultery with widow woman. Mr..
Bradford could not vote for the bill.
He Is a man of exceedingly tender con-
science, and thought that an affirmative
vote would produce quickening qualms.
Mr.. Pilling voted for the passage of the
act and now feels that he has discharged
his duty. Mr. Graham brought forward
the case and deserves great credit for the
mastery way in which he brought the
facts to the attention of he House. DR..
