heard of them, nor have I been able to flnd any
man who has. F-y one section of the census

He was tried by the Supreme Court for biza,-
my last week, and the fact of his having had
two wives was clearly established, when his
counsel introduced evidence to prove that he
already bad o:io wife when married to the oth

the assnmption that the second marriage was
me nrsi ana legal marriage, it was held that
no bigamy was committed, because Sprague

acquitted.
