Judge Finds Hasty Marriage in Bizarre Case
Referee Goldmark writes a straightforward opinion noting the marriage between Norton and Miss Suratt appears to have been entered in a moment of pique. Norton filed for divorce within eight weeks, and the couple showed signs of dispute within a month of marrying. Suratt’s address at 341 West Eighty-fifth Street is cited, with Norton maintaining an independent residence after marriage.

Marriage Was Entered Impulsively Referee Says
The referee notes the marriage was entered in haste and stresses the courts pursue preservation of the union while scrutinizing the evidence. It cites Miss Suratt’s lack of testimony and prior acts as clarifying factors in a long record of relations and a Jersey City marriage after a matinee. The piece links this to Broadway gossip and Norton’s role in Bouffe Varieties amid public scrutiny.
