Mrs. Lewis was divorced In this city October 8th, a week be fore application was made for a li cense, and Mr. Barker, who had trav eled all the way from New York State was Informed that license could not issue. Mrs. Elizabeth Lewis, accompanied by a daughter, aged 13 years, came to Grand Forks from Elmira, N. Y., over a ysar aso, aud very recently started an action for divorce from David T. Lewis on the grounds of de sertion and failure to provide. The decree was granted October 8th last, there being no appearance on the part of the husband, and a few days ago Mr. Barker put In an ap pearance, and arrangements were made for a wedding. But owing to the statute the marriage will be post poned until a more friendly State is reached and It is not unlikely that Wisconsin will be selected, as that Is the nearest point at which the law Is not particular as to the time of divorce or of a second marriage.
