MRS. BARTOR IS
MARRIED ABROAD
BUT SINGLE HERE

Bound by her marriage vow in Eng
land, but still free to marry again in
the United States, is the peculiar posi-
ton in which pretty Mrs. Ada Bartor,
of Nutley, today finds herself as the re-
suit of securing a divorce from her
husband, Henry, who started to rear a
second family in England after she
came to America six years ago.
Her decree, will be made absolute
within six months, but IL is of nj avail
in England. Attention was called to
this point by the vice-chancellor, who
recommended the decree today. Mrs.
Bartor is thus placed in the position
of being free to wed whom she pleases
in America, although married in Eng
land. ~
The little woman who lives with
Bartor as his wife in London, 1t was
testified, had built her hopes of hap
piness or the proceedings in America.
To Michael T. Barrett, of this city,
who saw her in London last fall, she
said that she prayed each night that
the divorce would be granted.
