OUEERLY MIXED
DIVORCE CASE
Woman Sues When she Should
Be Sued administrators
Land Sales.

A divorce summons was issued in the
Isuit of Naukana against her husband
Nawelu on June p. Service was waiv-
led by nbelee the same day. The cause
was desertion in and since the year
1897. Yesterday the following with
idrawaI was fled by the woman, sign
ing with her mark in presence Of a
witness:
In the above entitled libel for di-
vorce, the libelee may withdraw his
appearance, admissions and consent for
hearing, and the libel with consent Of
court may be stricken from the files
and withdrawn, and W. Austin Whit
| ing may withdraw as representing me
as attorney and may act as attorney
of Naukana in any libel of divorce for
desertion by him brought against me.
A misunderstanding and mistake in
above cause is the ground of the fore
going
Another mistake seems to be made
in the withdrawal, where the woman
uses her own name in place OF her
husbands. However, a new suit was
filed yesterday with the names revers-
ed from that withdrawn. It is now
Nawelu the man against Naukana the
woman, and he says that they were
married at Laie in 1887 and that in 1889
the hbelee utterly and wilfully desert
ed the libelant. There are no children
of the marriage.
Already the libelee, Naukana. has
entered her appearance with consent
that the libel may be heard and de-
termined without further appearance,
answer or notice to her. Apparently
she is bound to be divorced some old
way.
