rett county.
The object of this suit is to procure di-
yorce q rtncutO mdtIimOHu by Rebecca A. Nc

The amended bill states that on the 18th
day of May, 1896, the plaintiff was married to
the defendant at Garrett county, MARYLAND.
with whom She resided in said state and
county until sometime about the month of
February 1899. That after said marriage
the defendant frequently beat the plaintiff
in shameful manner with great cruelty
and brutality, and that his vicious conduct
became so intolerable that the plaintiff was
forced to leave his house and take safety and
refuge elsewhere. and was obliged to swear
out warrant for his arrest for her safety.
That at the March Term, 1899, of the Cir
cult Court for Garrett county, the defendant
under the name of David j. McMinn, (by
which name he was commonly known. was
indicted and convicted in two separate cases
for aSSaulting and beating the plaintiff.
That the conduct of the plaintiff towards
her husband has always boon kind, affec-
tlonate and above reproach and that the
defendant has not contributed anything to
her support or her children for over five
years, and that he has declared his intention
of living with her no longer. and that there
is no possibility of retaining her husband
or their ever living together. That said
abandonment by said defendant of said
plaintiff was without just cause or reason
and has continued uninterruptedly for more
than three years, and the separation of the
parties beyond any reasonable expectation
of reconciliation. That there were two
children born to them from said marriage
to-Wit: Grace Mabel and James William,
seven and five years of age, respectively,
infants.
That the said defendant is a non resident
of the State of Maryland.
The bill prayS for divorce q riHcWiO mUtft-
ntoHH by the plaintiff from the defendant,

minor children, general relief and an order
or publication against said nonresident de
fendent.
It is thereupon, this Goth day of September,

substance of this bin, warning him to appear
in this Court in person or by solicitor, on or

If the old soldier remembers Cleye-

hostile attitude of Democracy toward
the pension roll, and then adds what
Parker has said on the subject of
pensions, he will be convinced that
the Democrats do not look upon it as
a roll of honor, and that in the hands
of the Solid South he can expect but
scant consideration.
