Escaped On a Technicnlity,

Madison Gouldsby. colored, of Hell ena, escaped a term in the penitentiary on technicality in the law providing punishment for the crime of bigamy. Gouldsby was arrested on a warrant sworn out by his mother, and when arraig gned in court admitted that he had two wives living, one in Phil lips county and the other in Mississip- pi. He didn't make any effort to dodge the issue, seeming to be aware of the law in this state, which is to the effect that a man can only be prosecuted for bigamy when the crime is actually committed in this state.
