day by Cupid Dsnforth OF the
County Clerks ONCE.

Cupid Danforth of the Marriage License
Department issued permit to marry 10
an extraordinary couple yesterday, the
combined ages of the contracting parties
being Isl years.
When the prospective groom, John
Frederickson, appeared and asked for
license MIR. Danforth supposed he was
asking something that concerned his
children and was surprised when he said
he wanted the permit for himself The
genial purveyor of licenses was still more
surprised when Frederickson ushered in
the prospective bride and announced her
age as s3 years.
Frederckson was extremely reticent re-
garding the antecedents and address of
his tiancee and himself merely stating that
they were worEIng people who had
labored together for many years past and
had concluded that il would be easier to
go the journey OF life together than single.
Both stated they had never committed
matrimony before and that there was no
obstacle 70 their union.
The lady's name was Miss evine O.sen
and ia spite or her having passed her
allotted three score and ten he was as COY
as a more youthful maiden and looked
Younger than her John, who confessed to
81 summers ana winters.

MAREA MARSHALL. WILL.
Sensational Charges in a Docu.
ment Filed in the County
Clerks O flee.
Mrs. Josephine R gers Accused of OBJ
tain ng Money by Procuring False
Impersonationo of the Testator.

Mrs. Josephine Rogers had an unpIeas-
ant surprise yesterday when John Manley
filed with Deputy County Clerk Northrup
a paper purporting to be "ihe Will of the
late Mrs. Marea Marshall"
Mrs. Marshall died on the 18th of last
March of injuries received in a Geary-
street car accident. She left property at
42l Powell street, and money in bank, of
the approximate value OF $4,000. Letters
of administration were granted to her
niece, Mrs. Rogers of 404 Tehama street,
who represented in her petition that the
deceased left no will. Under the letters
of ad dministration so granted, steps toward
the settlement of the estate have been
taken and allowances for expenses have
been made from time to time by order of
court.
The will is Photographic and almost i'm
possible To decipher. 1t bears date Oc;o-
ber L. 1892. After the usual prelimlna-
ries, the testator beque eaths her property
in San Francisco and her money in the
HiberniR Bank TO Manley in trust, max
ing exception of the money withdrawn
from bank by her niece, who is alleged to
have employed an old French woman to
personate the testatrix. To sister Louisa
of the tesjatrlx, a house and lot in
Narau, France, and certain sums now on
deposit in the Bank OF France are be-
.queathed.
As trustee of the estate in San Fran
cisco Manley is directed to retain the
property intact until Clair Rogers, the
daughter of the niece named, becomes of
age and then to divide it between them.
She added that she would not leave Mrs.
Rogers anyt hing if she were not afraid her
niece would break the will. ManIey is
made sole executor of the will without
bonds.

office had reported to him that everything
WAS all right.
