TO ANNUL HER SONS MAhR1AaE.
MRS. Reynolds BeRins Suit Against Her Daugh-
ter-in.Law for That Purpose.


In June, 1896, Agnes J. Bartlett instituted a
suit against John G. Reynolds of 81 Clifton
place, Brooklyn, for SIC, 900 damages for breach
of promise OF marriage. but before the case was
carried to court the matter was settled by his
marrying her. The marriage was distastoful to
Mrs. Mary E. Reynolds, the mother Of John G.
Reynolds, and she has never acknowledged her
daughterin-law. Mrs. Reynolds Is a wealthy
widow, and the only work her son does Is to look
after her property. She has now begun an action
against her daughter in-law to annul tho mn r.
riage, on the ground that her son was undcr tho
influence OF the woman and was not OF sound
mind at the time of the marriage.
When Mrs. Reynolds first learned OF the mar
riage she became excited and said she would
have the marriage set aside as the girl was not
her SON. equal In social position and the mar
riage would cause talk among her friends and
relatives. 1t was her wish' she sal said, that her
pendent upon her for support, but she never
would help him to support his wife.
