Fort Worth, Tex. Jan, IL
An equity suit OF unusual magni-
rode and Importance pending for
tour years in the United States court
was decided "Wednesday by Judge

handed down, The facts IN the case

a follows: Walter Nj Parker. a
native Of Missouri, who died in May,
laoS. at Vernon Texas. leaving an
immensely large estate consisting Of
lands, cattle a4d money of approXi-
mate value of $4,000 married j
iyuung German sirl at Anaheim, Cal
in 1878 and continued TO live wi h
her until December, 1877, when he
left. leaving her at the home of her
mother, and going to Missouri to
live. Seven weeks after a daughter
was born OF this marriage. Parker.
as found By Judge Meek III his opin-
ion. deserted his wife wholly With
out cause and thereafter never COM
municated with her or their chill,
nor did he contribute to the sup
port OF either thereafter. After mis-
desertion he took up his abode IN
Missouri and in March, 1879, filed a
petition and was granted a divorce
against his wife, Barbara Kramer
Parker, in the circuit court OF that
county. stating in his petition that
no children were born OF the mar
rage and that his wife had absented
herself for more than q year with
out reasonable cause.
The wife never had any notice or
knowledge Of the divorce procee3-
ing or the Whereabouts Of Parker
and service was had by publication
in a newspaper published in Ray
county, Missouri, which notice by
publication the court found insuflic-
lent and not IN compliance with the
statutory requisites OF MISSOURI ana
therefore, fatally defective and the
decree OF divorce granted by the Mis-
souri, court Ia 1879 was held to be
q nullity and void for any purpose.
Thereafter Parker married in 1880 in
Iowa and With his second wife NOV
Cd to Texas, where he raised large
family Of sons and daughters and ac-
cumulated together with much per-
sonal property, money and cattle,
about 8,1eo acres of land in Gray
county and 10000 acres OF valuable
land in Wichita county besides other

character and for some years has
