IS A DEATH BBD MARRIAGE LEGAL1
An interesting cubo is now pending
in the Circuit Court, involving Home
nice points of law io relation to the
eolemuization of Ute murriugo cere
mony. Some )ar8 hine'e a prominent
citizen, Mr. Andrew Fuqua, died pos
Besuessedof considerable property.
By bis will his wile by a second mar-
: riugo came into possession of all liis
property, in case ebe remained a
widow. At her death, if she remained
' unmarried, luo property would revert
to her husbund's relatives. If she
married however, one half of the prop
erty was to bo hers, to be disposed of
tta she might think proper. Mrs. F.
, was hopolessly ill with lung disease,
and two days before her death she was
induced by her brother to marry, that
bhe might thus acquire the title in fee
simple to half the property, which she
could then deed to her own relatives,
isstead of allowing her husband's
heirs to inherit it.
Her brother had been a captain in
bno of the Indiana rigiments, and in
duced one of his soldiers to play the
part of husband in the deathbed mar
riage, in consideration of five hundred
dollars paid down. The arrangement
: was made, the purcbaso money paid
Over, and the dying woman, unable to
hit up in her bed, was married to, the
heartks4 adventurer, who could thus
make merchandise and a mockery of
'the most solemn Bucramcut recognized
in the civilized world; tho ceremony
was preformed by a minister of this
city, who, it would seem could not be
altogether ignonant of the transaction.
,At aoj rate, the husband, after the
ceremony, left the house and went on
u spree with his five hundred dollars,
and never saw his wife any mere, who
died two days alterward. lie never
slept under her roof. Tbo action was
brought by Mr. Fuqua's relatives to
contest the validity of the marriage.
The best legal talent is employed on
. both4 sides, and tho case will un
doubtedly provo one of great interest
to the public as well as the legal frater
nity Indianopolis Herald.
In regard to the above, while wo
claim no legal knowledgo, we Are
clearly of opinion that bad the mar.
riuge not been a mero mockery, it
ought to stand, and that upon the
point of its realness only, can the
question of Ibe legality be decided.
Had it been, capablo of proof, for
.instance, that from the antecedents of
the parties there was affection between
.them its taking place 'at the death-bed
would have made it even more holy.
'And again tho will left a matter of
..property at the oplbn of this woman
and she chose to marry Ed.
