It will be remembered that a year or two ago Mrs. Anna Brown obtained a divorce in the Putnam Circuit Court from her husband, Harry Brown. The defendant appealed the case to the Supreme Court and on Thursday, a decision was handed down reversing the decision of the Putnam Circuit Court and Mr. and Mrs. Brown are still husband and wife. The decision of the Supreme Court is as follows: The affidavit of residence, etc. filed by the plaintiff in a divorce proceeding may be sworn to before any office in the State authorized to administer oaths. 2. Proof of residence as required by statute cannot be dispensed with.
