LUCKY ESCAPE.
VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY FOR ALLEGED BIGAMIST.
Owing to a legal flaw, a verdict of not guilty was returned at the Notts. Assizes to-day in the case of William Willsher, who was charged with bigamousley marrying a woman’ named Rose Phillips, whilst his former wife was alive. The legal wife had disappeared, and consequently it was not proven in coart that she was alive at the time of the second marriage. Mr. Justice Horridge directed the jury to find a verdict of not guilty. He said that the police were not able to bring the evidence which would prove the case . Evidence of this kind ought always to be forthcoming. The verdict was returned as directed, and Willsher left the court a free man
