CITY BIOLLETITC, , • , AN INTEZESTING - CASE.—It is Known to most of readers that in consequence of domestic differ .ences between Mr. Theodore W. Lea and his wife, of this city, the couple' separated. They had one child 'which Mr. Lee obtained control of in spite of the op position of the family of Mrs- Lee. That lady was a daughter of the late John Grigg. The differences be tween Mr. and Mrs—Lee have recently been revived in another form. The present suit was brought by Mr. Leeto obtain possession of a portion of the estate of his deceased father-In-law, Mr. Grigg. The case wait argued before Justice Thompson, and was held under advisement. The bill in equity sets forth that Mrs. Lee had left her. husband's house ."without rea sonable or Just cause," and that she has since refused to live With him. :The complainant further avers that John Grigg died on the 2d of August, 1864, intestate, seized of alargereal -and personal estate, leaving surviving him a widow, the said Nancy .11/„Grigg; a son, the said John W.Grigg; and two daughters. Emily, wife of Horace B. Fry, and the said Fannie, wife of complainant; that Mr. Grigg left behind no debts of any importance, and that his personal and real estate were both very large; that the real estate under proceedings in the Orphans'Conrt has been parted. and divided, and the said Fannie's 'share of the personal estate is now in course of distribution to her by the said administrators; that her share of the seal estate allotted to her consists of eight houses and lota and seven annual ground rents, together valued at $190,000 and yielding and annual rental of *11,009, and that her share of the nersonal estate amounts to more .than#lso,oo); that, independently of this, she holds a bond given to her by her father, in his lifetime, obliging him and his representatives to pay her the sum of 16,000 annually, during the term of her natural -life, in monthly installments of tsoo. This bond was given while complainant and his wife were living to ,gether in this city, in a house furnished for them by -Mr. Grigg, and complainant avers that it was not given for the separate use of his wife, hi:awes intended and designed by the said John Grigg for the support 'and maintenance of complainant, his wile, child and household. "The complainant avers that his wife claims to re ceive the said yearly rental of $ll,OOO, her share of the personal estate of her father. ;and the said annuity of 46,600 for her own separate use, without any ParticlPs • tien therein of complainant, or of their child, for whose benefit the said Fannie contributes nothing. 'That complainant has not means enough of his own. independently of his wife's estate, from which he re -ceives nothing, to support a household and properly to maintain and educate his infant child. The complain ant farther shows that a large portion of the said per -senal estate in the hands of the said administrators -consists of cash and coupon bonds, which pass by de livery, and that his wife makes her residence out of • the State, and if the personal estate passes into her hands the same would pass beyond the jurisdiction and control of this court. Re further charges that the administrators are from time to time, without his consent, making large pay ments of money to the said Fannie, and are about to pay to her her fall proportion of the personal estate of her father, the late John Grigg, regardless of the pro hibition ofcomplainant, or of any right of his as her husband; aed of his legal and equitaule claims to the -enjoyment of a fair and reasom.ble share of her for tune for the benefit of himself and child. . The complainant then goes to request that the Ad mtnistrators stall be enjoined front paying to his wife her portion of the personal estate et Mr. Grigg, except from and through the said complainant, ' The answer or the Administrator admits the fact of a separation having taken place between Mr. and Mrs. Lee. It further admits "that the complainant has the care and custody of the said child, having deprived her of him by legal proceedings, she then and still express ing herself as willing to maintain and educate him if he be pat under her care," The answer further avers " that on the 30th of Au gust, 1£64, they filed their first account, which was re ferred to an auditor; and pending the audit they hied , a second, which was referred to the same auditor. That on the third o' March last the auditor tiled a pre liminary or interlocutory report, awarding to the said ~L,Nancy, M, Grigg, widow of John W. Grigg, and Emily 7,7 - I.e.Fry, their respective shares of the cosn and secant ties in the hands of the administrator for distribution, ' and also setting apart securities to the amount °Mat ; 000 as a principal for the payment to the said Fannie A. Lee of the annual e urn of 16,000 for the payment of which, during her life-time, Mr. Grigg gave his bond, as before mentioned, but reserved for a final report the question how and to whom the share of the said Fan ' me and the said annual sum of a 6 000 should be awarded. That before the Auditor, Theodore Lee, the complainant, appeared by counsel, setting up claims against his wife's estate, and particularly ask ing that the said annual sum of 0,000, or a portion thereof, should be awarded to him. After a full hear ing of the claim, the auditor, on the 16th of Jane last, ' made his repot, awarding to the Bald Fannie her en . tire share of the said personal estate of the said John 'Grigg. and directing the administrator to pay to her - .the whole of the said annuity of e 6,000, to wbica report the said Theodore Lee excepted, and the exceptions are now pending." The answer also denies the right of the complainant - to have any control over this property, and asserts that - the said Fannie does,and, as respondents believe. right- Sally, claims the right to use, hold, and enjoy the same ' to her own separate use; but that they will make no final diapositlon of the principal of the said personal 'estate only upon the order of the proper court. i• The answer of Mrs. Lee denies that she wilfully de ,'serted her husband, but asserted that she was elled to le h which ma a e life m u o r w en g ome.sbarbarous treatment, A NEW CHESTNUT STREET IMPROVE. limliT—Bignq aix 's SaLooiss.—"Girard Bow," on the nor.h side of Chestnut street, between Eleventh and • Twelfth, seems doomed to change its aspect greatly under the pressure of the wasZ9 march of improve - went.
