Anna Ruggiere, a laundry worker from Uns city, testified in Superior Court yesterday about a sheriff bringing two husbands to her home in a contention over an annulment. She said Ar mando Ruggiere married March 8 1913 in New Haven and deserted her that November. He later received a two year state prison term for theft and she believed him dead.

The referee adjourned advisement after listening to the testimony.
