A Slave Marriage i'm Question.


JUDGE MoNTGoMERY's CONSTRUCTION OF TIE ACT
OF JULY %, 1866.
Yesterday, in the Criminal Court, the trial of
Benjamin Anderson colored, on a charge of bigamy,
wasbegun. 1t is alleged that Anderson who was
slave in Virginia before the war, then lived with
one Lena Howard in the relation OF husband; that
they came here in 1861, and continued their rela-
tions and under the act of July %, 1866 a certin-
cate was issued to them by the bureau OF refugees
and freedmen declaring them man and wife, and
tnat, Notwithstanding that Lena was living and
mad not been legally divorced from him, he married
Henrietta Coleman on September 20, 1886.
JUDGE MoNTGoMERy's CONSTRUCTION OF THE LAW.
The testimony for the government was concluded
this morning and Mr.. T. C. Taylor, for the defen-
dant, made no defense, but moved that the case be
taken from the jury.
Judge Montgomery said that this act OF July %,
1856, IL was claimed, made parties who had been
slaves ana were living together husband and
WIFE, whether they consented or not. They may
have previously agreed to live together for year
and then separate, and yet II they were living to-
gether at the date OF the act II assumed to perpet
uate their condition II 1t had provided that such
certificate OF marriage It would have been different
out he did not think law could forever bind these
people together as husband and wife unless they
agreed to 1t. He did not believe that 1t was in the
power OF Congress to say to these people "you are
man and wife whether you like 1t or not" His pres
ent opinion was that the object OF this act was to
ngltmlSe issue and settle property rights and tt
was not intended to be made the basis OF criminal
prosecutions
