Mrs. Judge Seney’s trouble.--A deserted wife suing the woman who enticed her husband away from her.
TIFFIN, O., February 14-Judge Dodge gave his decision yesterday in the novel case of the former Mrs. George E, Seney against the present Mrs. George E. Seney. judge Seney is one of the well known lawyers of Ohio, and author of a “Civil Code” that bears his name. He married his first wife, Mrs. Anna Seney, in 1858, and for fourteen years they lived happily together. At about that time Mrs. Seney and Miss. Walker became very intimate friends, and continued to be so until, as is alleged, Mrs. Seney ascertained that Miss Walker was undermining the affections of her husband. A separation between Mr. and Mrs. Seney soon followed, and subsequently the judge married Miss Walker. Mrs. Seney, therefore, instituted a suit against her successor, claiming damages in the amount of $10,000 for the seduction of her husband.--”New York Sun.”
