Not succeeding in finding employment, the husband made up his mind to try his fortune in the Black Hi Is, and so told his wife. She objected most strenuous v, with tears and lamentations, and begged him to desist; but he argued the case so earnestly to her that she finally yielded to his plans.

The agreement was signed in triplicate and diWy witnessed. Each of the par ties took a copy, and the original rem ains in the hands of the attorney as its custodian. On Wednesday, all their matters leing arranged, the husband divided their little stock of money, giving his wife one-half. He also pur chased a ticket for her to Baltimore, and she left for her home.
