The refusal O. Governor Wilson
to submit ar issue Of yeracity raised
by himself to a tribunal having due

which proposed, should, and think

pie as confession that he dare not

square themselves with the eternal

The Greenyille Daily Piedmant say
the refusal of Probate Judge Branl.
lett Thursday morning to issue 3
marriage license 20 . white man who
has been divorced in North Carolina
ana who applied at the Probate
Judges Office here ior a marriage il
cense raises Quito an Interesting
iYuestion Of Law which VIII BE- Of in
!terest 10 all OF >.le legal fraternity
and 10 the public il general because
questions involving marriage are OF
! human interest.
The question involved is: Does
South Carolina wlich is tie only
state in the Union where a divorce
cannot be secured recognize divorce
DEGREES OF other states? In refusing
to issue a marriage license to the
nan who applied for one Judge Bram-
lett held that this STATE does not rec
cgnize divorce DEGREES Of other states
and consequently could not by law
issue the license.
The refusal to issue the license
came about in this wise: a Mr..
Wood whose given name could not
be ascertained Thursday morning ap-
piled at the Probate Judges Office for
a marriage license for his brother,
Mr. J. N. Wood. II asking for the
license he told Judge Bramlett that
his brother had beca previously mar
ried in North Carolina and had been
divorced from his wife.
The wife, so he said, subsequently
married. Mr. Wood then moved to
Greenyille where lie was switten BY
Cupid's arrow. He then sent his
brother to the city to secure the
marriage license. The request for
the license and Judge Bramlett's re-
fusal 10 issue il have been referred
l. above.
After declining to issue the license
Judge Bra.nlett suggested that Mr..
Wood bring action il the civil court
10 require him (Juoge B.amiett) to
show cause why the license should
not be granted he will contend that
brings the matter IN before the high
er court where It could be finally
decided.
Judge Bramlett said that in an
eu.ar;oe +ha conr,.S order 10 show
cause why the license should not be
granted he Will contend that Soutn
Carolina does rot recognize divorce
DEGREES OF other states.
Upon being refused the license for
his brother Mr. Wood left the Pro-
bate Judges Office saying ne would
consult attorneys relative to the
law on the question

concerning the mater disagreed with
Judge Dramiett. lie took the Eie~
that though South Carolina does not

allow divorces it does recognize di-
vorce DEGREES of other states and that
the man should have been granted
the marriage license.
If the matter IS brough- before

one and will doubtless attract much
attention.
