Dead in Effect
GERMAN WOMAN’S VAIN EIGHT.
LONDON, August 6,
A woman at Dortmund is vainly protesting to the Law Courts that she is not dead, says the Berlin correspondent of “The Times.” Officially, she has been proclaimed non-existent, and as far as the Courts are concerned that is that. The woman, a native of Dortmund, lived for many years apart from her husband, who in 1923 obtained a legal declaration of her death, and remarried. His first wife did not hear about it until recently, and applied to the Dortmund County Court to revoke its declaration, but without success. It was pointed out that sho had failed to combat the declaration within the prescribed period, so her death was good j in law, and must, stand. ■
