A auaar Case.


Unless Vice Chancellor Reed grants
relief, Charles H. Parker, a glassblower, of
Salem, now confined in Woodbury. Jail,
will spend the balance Of his life there, at
the expense of Glocester county taxpayers.
Parker defaulted in the payment of ali
mony to his wife, and about year ago was
committed to Jail therefore. Being pos
sessed of no property, and his earning ca
pacity ended, there is no Likelihood of his
ever being able to pay Friends have taken
his case in hand and secured counsel, and
the facts were presented to Vice Chancellor
Reed. Counsel stated that Parker had for
several years rebelled against paying ali
mony to his wife because of fixed belief
that be was the best judge Of the equities
of the case; that his client had left the
jurisdiction and disregarded the mandates
of the Court in obedience to bad advice:
that his year of impr nment had opened
his eyes to the enormTEy of his action, and
shown him that he should obey the orders
of the Court.
Mr. billiard said Mrs. Parker waved the
payment of S1400 accrued alimony, volun-
tarily agreed to accept S. in liep = 50 per
week, and even petitioned to g., IS
band out without filing bond.
Parker is a member Of tl.7- i'd Fellows,
Knights of Pythias, Junior Order Of Amer
lean Mechanics, and other organizations.
These members bestirred themselves at
various times during the last year to secure
Parker's release, They even went so far as
to get up a petition signed by upwards of
four hundred prominent residents of Salem
county, asking Judge Grey, who committed
Parker, to release him on the ground Of
humanity But the Vice Chancellor was
obdurate.
If Parker can give bond of $500 it is
likely he can be released.
Parker was taken i'll with high fever
on Monday, and lodges are giving him
attention
