WOMAN REQUESTS
RELIEF OF COURT
M airy Verrastro Wants
DOmenic's Divorce Be
Rendered Null and Void

A motion by the defendant to
reopen judgment In the case Of
Domenic verrastro VS.. Mary Peru
gini Verrastro was filed in superior
court today. A decree Of divorce
had been granted to the plaintiff on
the 18th Of May by Judge Carl
Foster, on grounds Of intolerable
cruelty.
In the motion filed this morning,
the defendants said the only reason
she had not contested the divorce
action when 1t was brought to court
was that her husband had prom
ised in case he was successful in
obtaining the divorce to turn over
to her the funds of her estate,
which he had managed for her
since their marriage.
The defendant claims she felt
that acquiescence in the divorce &C
ton was the only way which she
could secure for herself the man
agement Of her own funds. How
ever, 1t is her claim that the plain
tiff, after winning the divorce,
failed to comply with his promise
to her. She has instituted action
in the court Of common pleas on
this account, and also asks the d.
vorce decree be rendered null and
void In consequence, and that she
be given whatever relief sens 1T
ting to the court.
