Nor do we see that the case is altered by
the fact that the written agreement pre-

John has lived here for perhaps ten years

boy, not blessed with a high degree of

that he did not know that II was Il viola
ton of law to marry his niece, which he
did two or three months ago and was
arrested and placed In the county jail on
Tuesday for his crime. This is case OF
Ignorance pure and simple and in this
case apparently works a great hardship
as the boy is an lnoffensive and quiet sort
OF fellow, not intending any harm or vlo-
latiou of law 10y his act. But the law is
such that ignorance of law is no excuse
for its violation. The only remedy in such
a case Is executive clemency.
