for a. divorce from George HI. Schriver,
to whom she was married May 20, 1897.
She says her husband offered such in
dignities to her that her condition was
intolerable and she had to withdraw
from his home.
Margaret Reese asks the court to de-
clare null and void her marriage to
John o. Reese. They were welded April
Is, 1901, in Avoca, and for some time
afterwards lived in Moosic, where. Mrs.
Reese says, she discovered that her
husband had another wife living, whom
he welded prior to his marriage to her
and from whom he had not been di-
vorced. She thereupon left him, and
now asks the court to declare her mar
riage to him null and void.
