\ Fort Worth Man Enjoins All
Texas from Marrying His
Sweetheart

fuRT WORTH, May ls.-A habras cor.
pus case to-day, Of most interesting
nature, filled the court room with eager
listeners. Miss Dora Lacey Is q beauti.
full girl Of nearly eighteen, who has
been the recipient o. much attention
from two men Moses Prince and George
Engler. Yesterday Prince obtained a
marriage license, authorizing any minis.
ter TO perform the ceremony, with Miss
Lacey and Prince as principals. 1t was
supposed the lady's consent had been
obtained, and papers published the item.
Englar saw il this morning, and fran.
tically rushed to the court house and also
obtained license to marry Miss Dora
Lacey, II seems that Princes suit is
not favored by the lady's parents. and
thew watched over her closely, never
permitting her TO leave the house with.
out an escort. They, however, favor
Engler's suit
When Prince found how things were.
he employed LAWYERS and was granted a
wri: Of habeas corpus. commanding the
girls parents to bring her into court and
show cause why. being of age. she
should not be permitted to marry Moses
Prince. who. it is alleged, was her chosen
one. The sheriff went to the house. and
there was a scene. Lacey and Eugler
were there, ready to die in defense Of the
girl. but the sheriff executed the writ.
and while Lacey went to the court room
Engler hurried away and employed the
best counsel in the city. II was now
known that the men were having
legal fight for wife. and the court
room was soon packed with people,
Judge furman called up the case and
the young lady was put on the stand.
She swore she was seventeen years old
in December last; that her parents were
not restraining her Of her liberty. and
that she had no desire to 60 with that
man ipointingto Prince The plaintiffs
lawyer evinced the fact that Prince has
reason to believe that Miss Dora was
willing to marry him, but Judge Fur
man renanded the girl to her fathers
custody.
II is now said that Prince will enjoin
any and all ministers, justices OF the
peace and court officers from perform
ing the ceremony: that he has made his
application, and deputy sheriff is at
the girls gate ready to serve any eccle-
siastic with the courts mandate. Both
