or Not?

CHARLOTTE. n. c., Nov. Especial. J.
At the Temple ofJustice yesterday evening
Squire Maxwell was confronted with quite
a sensational case. The facts, as near as
the reporter could gather, was that Il. A..
WOOten and wife came 10 Charlotte about
fifteen years ago from South Carolina. Up
to about SIX months ago the relations be-
tween the TWO were as they should have
been, but about that time MIR. Wooten
mysteriously disappeared, and all efforts
that his wife made TO find out
his whereabouts proved futile. A
few days ago she learned that her
husband had gwen her the go-by, and had
married Miss DOrcas Mckinney, Of Pine
vile. Mrs. Wooten being unable to work TO
support herself, learned that her husband,
with his wife No. ,, had moved 10 Char
lOIte, and she Immediately went TO where
they were living and asked why he had de-
serted her. WOOten claimed that he had
never married Mrs. Wooten. The whole af-
fair is wrapped in mystery, and Colonel
Maxwell ruled that there was sufficient
evidence to bind the parties over, the bond
being 500 each.
