MARRIED,
DIVORCED,
ARRESTED
and CHARGED With BIGAMY
Atlanta Man Married II Hours
Too Soon

Atlanta, Ca, May 3O.-Clarence E,
Pinion, we'll known young Albanian
has the distinction of having twica
married and been once divorced with
in the short space of "a hours. Pin
ion has long been engaged to Miss
uLla Belle Lowry, 15-year-old girl
He couldn't marry her. because he had
just recently received one decree IN
the suit for divorce from his wife, Mrs
Emily May Pinion.
However, the case was set down for
last Monday morning in the superior
court and Pinion arranged with his
sweetheart to marry him Monday ev-
ening The court calendar was very
crowded and the Pinion case was not
reached before adjournment, although
the young man had waited throughout
the day to be freed. Pinion says that
he had already been unlucky in ono
marriage that was postponed-the first
on account of the illness of his bride
and he was determined not to again
postpone wedding of his and in this
way bring upon himself additional
bad luck in a matrimonial line. Ac-
tordingly, he told the little sweetheart
that all was we'll and the final di-
vorce granted by the courts.
Then they were married, and just
as the minister pronounced them man
and wife, T. T. Lowry, brother of the
girl, who thought she was legally
married, rushed in with the surprising
intelligence that Pinion had not been
divorced from his first wife. He took
his sister home and Tuesday morning,
IL hours after the second marriage,
Pinion appeared in the court and got
his final decree. PiniOn then turn
ed around to face a charge of bigamy
as Lowry had drawn a warrant for
him in justice court Pinion made
bond during the day and Tuesday ev-
ening he stole the little sweetheart
eway from her brother and wen,
back to the same minister, who per-
formed a second marriage ceremony,
this time tying the nuptial knot legal
ly. Lowry is now "peeved" with his
Lrother-in-law and has refused to
withdraw the warrant, and says he
will prosecute Pinion to the limit of
the law. Lawyers for the prosecution
declare that Pinion is just as guilty
of bigamy in the eyes of the law as
if he had married half dozen wives
and lived with them as many years.
while some of his friends say he will
probably be willing to serve sentence
for bigamy by the time the case comes
