Marriage Is Annulled. An Extraordinary
Case
Marriage of liev. S. A. Nettles
and Miss Fannie Littlejohn Declared
to He Void.
Spartanburg Herald, 12th.
An interesting case was heard
here before Judge Aldricb on
yesterday.
A marriage solemnized between
Miss Fannie V Littlejohn ami
Rev. Stephen A Nettles on June
25, 1899, was declared to tie void,
and never to have been of binding
force.
Tho action was Wrought by Miss
Littlejohn who alleged that at that
timo her mind was ho much impaired
by reason of a serious
physical ailment, that hIio was incapable
of underHtanding, or of
carrying out the marriage contract.
Almost immediately after
tho marriage she was nlnced nn
der the treatment of a specialist
in surgery and diseases peculiar
to women And, as a result of his
treatment her mind has been rcstore<l,
and that since regaining
possession of her faculties she
does not wish to ratify or consummate
the marriage.
The testimony was in accordance
with the allegations, and,
while Miss Littlejohn testified
that Mr. Nettles, treatment was
very kind, she would not assume
the duties and relationship of a
wife.
Under this stato of fads Judge
Aldrich held that the alleged contract
was in fact no contract and
so decided.
Messrs. Duncan and Sanders
represented the pluintifT, and K O
Purely, of Sumter, represanted
the defendant.
