ToWanda, Pa. Feeble with the

manner, Mrs. Hanna Harrison entered
the courthouse and demanded the pa
pcrs In a divorce granted her twenty
eight years ago. Pro~thonOtary Estell
spent two hours searching the records
and finally found that back in the
eighties Mrs. Harrison had beer grant
ed a divorce from James Harrison on
the grounds Of desertion. The decree
was to become effective when Mrs.
Harrison paid the costs Of the case.
The conditions were explained to the
aged woman, and she said she knew
all about it and was ready to pay the
costs as required.
Then she explained that about the
time the divorce was applied for she
heard her husband was dead, and she
decided that a divorce was not neces-
sary. A few days ago he returned
after an absence Of over thirty years.
and she decided to lift the decree. She
accordingly paid the costs and was
given the papers, which restores to her
her maiden name.
II put him out of my life forever
when l applied for that divorce, and
now | intend to keep him out" said
the woman as she placed the courts
