The Thorndike will case. [From the ] An interesting case, establishing the validity of the marriage of a citizen of Massachusetts in the German free city of Frankfort on the Main, before the United States Consul, and involving quite a large amount of property, was recently decided by the full bench of the Supreme Court of this State, at Boston.

be paid to his lawful heirs. Andrew died in 1854; and Israel Thorndike, the younger brother of Andrew, claimed that he, with his brothers and sisters, and the children of such of his brothers and sisters as have died, were the lawful heirs of Andrew, and as such entitled to receive the $20,000, with the accumulation since 1854, and he had accordingly commenced an action against the trustee, under the will of Israel Thorndike, the older, to recover his share of it. On the other hand, Katherine Thorndike, a German woman, and Andress and Anna. L. Thorndike, claimed to be entitled to the whole of this sum, as the widow and children of Andrew. Under this state of things the trustee brought a bill in equity, in the nature of a bill of interpleader, and the various claimants were summoned into Court to maintain their claims against each other. Prior to August, 1851, Katherina Bayerl had borne to Mr. Thorndike the two children above named. At that time, while both were temporarily resid

The case was very elaborately argued by a long array of counsel. The Court, after carefully comparing the opinions of the legal doctors, and the reasons assigned by them respectively, and minutely examining the provisions of the civil act of Frankfort respecting marriages and taking into view the facts, which were proved, that marriages celebrated in this form were quite frequent with foreigners temporarily residing in that place, and had received a certain degree of recognition, in some instances, from the Senate and the judicial tribunals there, came to the conclusion, which was expressed in an elaborate opinion by Judge Merrick, that the marriage was valid, and that the money in controversy, which now amounts to about $30,000, belongs to Andreas and Anna L. Thorndike, as children and lawful heirs of Andrew Thorndike.
