Strange divorce case

--A curious divorce suit was commenced Thursday in New York, in which Alfred Beardsley applies for a divorce from his wife, Mary Elizabeth Beardsley, on the ground of her being also the wife of Dr. James Francis Mahan, of New York, to whom sue had represented herself as a single woman, daughter of a Mr Seymour, of Halifax, Nova Scotia, by which the Doctor was induced to marry her during the lifetime of her husband. Great interest is excited in consequence of the respectable position in life of all the parties concerned, Mrs. Beardsley being a daughter of the Rev. Nathaniel D. Law, a Methodist minister.
