Now Torrington Wife Claims Husband
Was Insane.

The wife of Henry H. Catlin of Tor
rington has taken steps towards an
annulment of the marriage which took
place about year ago. Catlin is an
aged and eccentric character who
though possessing valuable real es-
tate holdings in Torrington, sells shoe
strings and notions from door to door
Sometime ago William Goodwin was
appointed conservator over him, but
this did not prevent Catlin from adj
vertising for wife and marrying a
woman of Gardiner, Me, who was I'M
aware of his eccentricities. Goodwin
has retained a lawyer to look after
his wards financial interests. The
ground on which the annulment of the
marriage is sought is that Catlin was
insane previous to marriage.
