MANY MARRIAGES AFFECTED.
Princess Rospigiosrs Case Brings Up
an Interesting Question.

Rome. September 4.-The case OF Prin-
cess Rospigliosi, who was a Miss Mario
Reid of Washington, D. c.. for the an
nullment Of her first marriage with Fred
erick Farkhurst of Bangor, Me-, in
wolves a point of common law, the de-
cision of which is considered in church
circles as likely to affect thousands of
marriages of Catholics and nom Catholics
in the United States. The application for
the annullment was filed fourteen months
ago.
1t is now said that the principal reason
for the delay is because the propaganda.
was unwilling to decide In favor of the
supplicant on a point which might pos
sibly raise the question of the legality Of
many other marriages.
The princess and her lawyer expects to
secure an annullment on the ground that
there is no trace of dispensation having
been either granted or read In the church
at the time of the marriage, which, ac-
cording 10 common law is indispensable
as Mr.. Parkhurst was a non-Catholic.
