CHARGED WITH BIGAMY. Yesterday very
handsome and petite young woman appeared
at the City Attorneys offi7e, and lodged
complaint against her husband FOR the crime
of bigamy. The complaining witness name
is Appolonia Mansfield, and the defendants
name Is Henry H. Mansfield. The COM
plaiut alleges that on the 22i day Of Deem
Der, 1877, the parties were married at Evans
vile, Indians, and that no divorce has ever
been granted, and that defendant st ell
times knew that the prosecuting witness was
alive and whare she lived. That notwith-
standing this fact he, on the 18Th day Of No
vsmber, 1883. entered into the obligations OF
marriage with Elonia Greenlaw, at the city
of Sacramento. Sometime ago Mrs.
Mansfield came to this city and had
an interview with her husband, and at
that time he claimed that he had been
divorced. but Mrs. Mansfield is emphatic in
her denial of this, and seys that no such pro-
ceedings have ever occurred. A warrant
was issued for Msnsheld'5 arrest, but the off.
Ger failed to find him when he went to his
house in the afternoon. Early il the evening
the complainant appesred at the station

himself if she did not withdraw the complain

to a late hour last night Mansfield had not
been found by the officers.
