George Harmon finds wife Sarah Pennell already married

A Colored "Enoch" Turns Up---A Con-
nubial Perplexity,

A colored Enoch Arden affair was re-
ported to have occurred Saturday in the
suburbs, but on an investigation it proved
that it was not quite that way. Enoch had
turned up, but was anxious to see his
ex-wife. It appears that on the 7th of
December last George Harmon, a colored
man employed in the machine shops of
this City and Suburban Railway, after a
due courtship, and on the solemn assev-
erations of his intended, substantiated by
his prospective mother-in-law, that the
former was not married (it appearing that
George had a vague suspicion on this
point), was united in wedlock to Sarah
Pennell by Parson Nisbet. Things went
on very well until Friday, when George
discovered that his wife had another hus-
band, one Jim Richardson. He at once
went to this connubial partner and pro-
posed to deliver up his property, but the
latter was indifferent, and George is now
the unwilling possessor of another man's
wife, and he is considerably perplexed as
to what he should do in the matter.
