Judge Concurs in His View and Grants Divorce. Relative to the status of a divorce libel he had brought in the case of Katherine Swalenski of this city vs. Anthony Swalenskj of San Francisco, Cal.,, Attorney Frederick B. Hunger- ford made 1 statement before Judge Edwin B. Gager in the superior court at Hartford vesterdayv showing a pe- culiar situation. ' He sald that after he had instituted the action he learned that the de- fendant had started similar action in the California courts, that an inter- locutory degree had been entered in that state but would not become ef- fective until the end of one year. He explained that he had communicated with Swalenski’s attorney and then sent a second notice. In reply to the second notice, to be delivered to Swal- enski, he explained the attorney ad- vised him that he would not deliver ihe notice unless payment of $5 was made. Attorney Hungerford explained that he did not relish the idea of he- ing “held up” for this amount. On the ground that the defendant’s attorney had been given notification, Judge Gager ruled that sufficient notice had been_ given for the purposes of Mrs. Swalenski's action. the | local Red !
