And Nancy Holds the Fort.

The conjugal infelicity of old uncle
John and aunt Nancy Madison was
again brought to the attention of the
court last week and the end does not
give promise of appearing until the
small joint accumulations of theil
lives shall have been swallowed VI
in litigation. Two weeks ago Nancy
appears to have been dumped. That
is to say, in the suit brought by John
for divorce, from his own testimony
it was shown that although the OLD
scoundrel had married Nancy anC
had been living with her as her hus.
band for 10 years, he already had q
wife living in Georgia at the time OF
this marriage. OF course this threw
out the divorce case, and, as John
supposed, dumped Nancy.
But Nancy didn't see it in that
tight. She wanted still to occupy
her apartment in the home she haC
been largely Instrumental in build
ing. When she made her appear
ance John met her with may, nay
Nancy" and other more forceablt
objections. Nancy claimed thai
John struck her and threw her from
the house. Next day she had hel
erstwhile derelict spouse up before
Justice Hurlbut, who bound John
over in the sum of $50 to keep the
peace, in default of which he was tC
go to Jail for 30 days. This leaves
Nancy at present in charge of the
old home, while John languishes
in jail. There is promise of more
litigation.
