WANTS MARRIAGE
D.ECL AIRED VOID.
Count Boni dc Castcllanc Goes to
Vatican With His
Plea.
"C0NSENT" WAS LACKlN G
Anna Gould Did Not Marry "Un-
til Death Us Do
Part"
CONSENT WAS LACKlN G
tspecla, Cable TO Tho T,mes-pisps.ch.

Paris, Juno Account Boni de
Castellane has made formal appli-
cation to the Vatican for q declara-
ton that his marriage with Anna
Gould, now the Duchess de Sagan. is
null and void. The case is before the
Rota Congregation, revived by Pope
Plus ", and composed of ecclesiastics
especially versed In canon law.
This congregation has also another
American case on hand, namely. that
of the Princess Rospigliosi, formerly
Miss Mary Jennings Reid. OF New Or
leans and Washington. and later Mrs.
Parkhurst OF Maine. The matrimonial
cases Of these two American prin-
cesses is very different. Count Boni
seeks to prove that his marriage with
Anna Gould was null and void If the
beginning. owing to the mental atti-
tude of his wife, who from the Begin
ming declared her Intention Of divorce
Ing him should the marriage prove a
failure. Count Bonl has the evidence
OF friends to whom Anna declared her
intentions. Castellane says she only
married him conditionally, not It'll
death do US part but until you make
failure OF the marriage. Boni claims
this was not legal consent, but that
the mental reservation in Annals mind
made real consent impossible, and as
matrimony is a contract as we'll as a
sacrament. mental and moral consent
are both necessary.
On the other hand. when the cerc-
mony of marriage has been performed.
the presumption is that consent has
been given, SO in order to win his suit
Bonl must produce. strong evidence to
prove the contrary. All writer's on
canon law admit that the absence of
consent of one of the parties renders
marriage null and ve'd. 'rhis Is ona
of the fourteen impediments which,
according to the Catholic Church, may
invalidate marriage.
Reading between the lines, It is not
hard to understand that Count Boni's
eagerness to prove his marriage with
Anna Gould null and void means that
the young count contenaplates another
rich marriage, and according to the
law laid down by the church, he will
be free to do SO should he succeed in
proving that he was never married at
all. Should Boni succeed in getting
the Vatican to decide in his favor,
then the Prince and Princess dc Sagan
VIII have no further difficulty in OBJ
taining the Pope's sanction to their
marriage, which up to this time they
have sought in vain
