The object of this suit is to pro-
cure divorce, vincule matrimoni,
by the Plaintiff Margie Frances Webb
from the defendant Maurice Foster
Webb,
The bill states that Margie Fran
ces Webb, the plaintiff, was married
to Maurice Foster Webb the defendant,
on the oath day of December 1924, in
the City of Philadelphia, State of
Pennsylvania. and lived together in
said City until the second day of jan
uary 1882;
That one child was born of said
marriage.
That the plaintiff has been a resi-
dent of Worcester County, State of
Maryland for more than three years
next preceding the filing of her bill
of complaint;
That though the conduct of the said
Margie Frances Webb, the plaintiff
towards her said husband Maurice
Foster Webb, has always been kind,
affectionate and above reproach, her
said husband Maurice Foster Webb,
has without just cause or reason aban-
doned and deserted her and has de-
clared his intention to live with her
no longer, and that such abandonment
has continued uninterruptedly for at
least three years, and is deliberate and
final and the separation of the parties
beyond any reasonable expectation of
reconciliation.
That the said Maurice Foster Webb
the defendant is a nonresident of
this State and when last heard from
resided in Bristol, Pennsylvania.
1t is thereupon this 18th day of
January, 1885, ordered by the Cir
cult Court for Worcester County, in
equity, that the plaintiff, by causing
a copy of this order to be inserted in
some newspaper, published in Worces-
ter County, once in each of four sue
cessive weeks before the 18th day of
February 1885, give notice to the said
absent defendant, of the object and
substance of this bill, warning him to
appear in this Court in person or by
Solicitor, on or before the 9th day of
March 1885, to show cause if any he
has, why a decree ought not to pass
as prayed.
