SOLD HIS WIFE FOR $40.
Husband Thought 1t Too Little and
Struck the Purchaser.

Wy hSsOClieu
CHICAGO, Sept. Gas evidence in
case OF assault and battery in Judge
Fosters court, a contract was produced
by which NJ. F. King sold his wife to
Henry Reuter- for $40 about a year ago.
King met Reuter- on South Clark street
last night and struck him in the neck.
Reuter- resented the blow and both men
were arrested. Reuter- pleaded self
defense, and then King explained how
the trouble came about.
He said he sold his wife to Reuter-
for $40 months ago, and that the pair
had since lived together. After trying
single life again, King said he concluded
that Reuter- had not paid enough for his
spouse. but Reuter- refused to pay over
more money, King said he struck him
in a fit of indignation. Reuter- denied
the transaction. The other man then
produced thumb-marked contract, in
which the transfer was made and the
sum was stated. with Reuters sigma
ture attached.
Justice Foster had the fellow write
his name, and the signatures were
Identical. The Magistrate fined the
tickle husband SIS and costs.
