ERRONEOUS IMPRESSION CORRECTED.
Mrs. Sandford's Divorce from Hcr Husband
Shown to Be Entirely Legal.

Rockland, May 1S.-Hon. J. T.. Moore

Littlefield, attorneys for Sarah G..
Sanford. in her divorce proceedings
against Elliott Sanford of New York,
says that the recent Associated Press
dispatch from New York. relative to
the recent proceedings of Mr. Sanford.
is incorrect and unjust. She is now
married to Mr.. Elias Miliken Of Au-
gusta.
Her divorce was granted in Knox
county by Judge Foster. in December
1852. for the cause Of cruel and abusive
II catment and the acts Of cruelty were
in part set out in the libel 1t was not
for desertion, nor WAS notice served on
Mr. Sanford by publication as stated,
ON the other hand she left him in 1889
for his gross cruelty toward her and
he continued to follow and annoy her
until she procured q divorce in this
county.
The libel was served on him by a
copy given him in hand by an officer
in New York, and he had fun llnowl-
edge by it and otherwise of the charges,
both general and specific. but did not
appear and make a defence. as was de-
sired he should Under the law in New
York. it is claimed thar a divorce in
another state against a resident of that
state is not binding there. unless the
respondent appeared in the proceed
ings.
Mr.. Sandford therefore has taken the
formal action in New York to have the

upon or affecting some property rights,
and Mrs. Milliken has no objection to it
and has therefore taken no notice of it.,
but the impression in the dispatch as
to the cause for and manner of procur-
ing her divorce is wrong and unjust to
her and should be corrected
