Another oitous bit OF legislation was

which might be involved in the situa-

resolutions upon expediency. He put
away theories and talked about con-

sault and battery upon his 17-year old
wife Susan. whose hair he clipped
close to the scalp in tit OF jealous
anger a few days ago.
The couple have been married about
