A former suit in which the same parties were involved was recently dismissed for discrepancy in the dates, and this bill would seem to have the same vice, it being alleged that the parties were married in Alexandria by Rev. D. F. Sprigg December 24, 1878. Assaults with a club, dislocating his wife’s fingers, threats, and attempts to take life with a knife, habitual drunkenness for 4 years, and non-support of his family are among the causes alleged for the divorce. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ DC-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
