CURIOUS MATRIMONIAL MUDDLE.

BY a combination of circumstances Mrs
Rachel Foster and Mrs. Rachel Ciark-who
is one and the same per.on-finds herself
legally bound matrimonially TO two hus-
bands and has applied to the courts to re-
ieve her from the bonds of the double con-
nubial knot. According TO the papers in di-
vorce filed by Mrs. Foster Clark with the
prothonotary of the court of common pleas
the lady in 1850, at the age of fifteen years,
was married to Thomas Foster. Their honey
moon was brief, for in two months they quar-
relied and he left her to struggle along rs
best she could With the breaking out of
the rebellion the truant husband went forth
to the defense of his country's flag, and the
girl-wife became grass widow only to don
the widows weeds after the first battle of
Bull Run, when word came home that F0s-
ter had fallen on the field of battle
In the spring of 1866 she succumbed to the
wooing of Elisha CLARK, who was connected
with the United States Marine Corps, sta
toned in this city. They lived very happi-
ly together until 1881, when Mrs Clark
made the discovery that instead of occupy
ing hero's grave her first husband was in
the flesh and resident of Bridesburg. They
met On friendly terms; the peculiar situation
in which the woman had placed herself by
her second marriage with Clark was dis
cussed, and separation from the latter fol-
lowed. It was at this juncture that she
sought the advice of counsel for assistance in
extrioating herself from the peculiar posi-
tion In which she had been placed. She then
filed in common pleas court, No. 3, two libels
in divorce, one from Foster on the grounds
of twenty years separation and the other
from Clark on the grounds that her marriage
with him was voidable, owing to the libel
liant already having husband living at the
time the marriage ceremony was solemnized.
Since the proceedings in divorce were COM
