TWINS DIVORCED FROM TWINS.
MARYSVILLE, Ohio, Dec. 31. -
All records for divorce were broken when twin brothers who
were wedded to twin sisters, were simultaneously separated
each from his wife by the hand of the law. The
brothers are Alvin and Alvi Bruckles, farmers, who
live in Champaign County.
In 1895 they were wedded on the same day to twin
sisters. Five years from that time, to the very day,
each filed a divorce petition. In both cases willful
absence was given as the cause, the brothers claiming that
their wives had deserted them.
The cases came up for hearing yesterday and the decrees
were entered today. |
