Marriages with frenchmen we mentioned recently in the Herald that if an australian Young lady married a Frenchman,2-ther before the registrar or according to the rites r f any Church or religions denomination shews not legally married to him should he go France or Uny French Colony and choose to repudiate her a his wife there. It certainly seem extraordinary that i woman should be wife and her children legitimate in Victoria ii m it Tress and her children bastards directly Sli reaches new Caledonia or Tahiti. Yet nevertheless so it is. The French Law does not recognize any marriages contracted by French citizen in foreign countries,.unless All the formalities required by the French marriage Law have been Ful filled and the French courts will not Only refuse to recognise a marriage which perfectly valid n the country in which it wa3 solemnized by will go further and actually annul it. As tin lawyers say we will state a Case on the 7il tune is 1, it Young English lady Gertrude Bel grave was married Atter due publication of Banin to Jules Alfred Desaint French teacher age 12, at the Parish Church fit Matthias Easte our m id diesel Wetig Malul m. A Sainte a father Only became acquainted with his son s marriage about Width january. 1s70.and telegraphed on the loft that he would Conn Ove front Paris. He did so acknowledged his son his wife and their children and remained at Torii h ise expressing a wish that his son might naturalised in England and thus avoid having t lie drawn for in the conscription. The so Alfred Desaint then went to Paris to be his Mother and Sisters returned in a few Days to London Onn Gil a arranging for them Ai to live in Paris together in his House. And be would return in a Day or received two telegrams from him naming Dif Ferent Days for his return. Elixious. When the Dav passed without his appearing a 1 the More As b had Leftow with Only shillings and six Pei fearing that Hanigar 1 2 ill she borrowed Mone and started for Paris with her two Chi Dren expecting to a warmly welcomed at her father in Law to House. She was first told that her Husban was in England and then less ceremoniously Shashe was not his wife. Wearied and exhausted her Long and anxious journey she asked the meaning of the strange words whereupon be father in Law immediately sent for a con Tissaire d police to rent out Sisr and her children from i House. _ they ters taken without further explanation to the Bureau de police. Here m i Sainte of Lowed and formally stated his intention of annulling tha marriage. Hire was As hearties a Case of repudiation As it was possible to imagine it was first brought under notice in the London newspapers by Ada m. Leigh lady president of the Mission Homes in Paris who states that tin marriage Hod been annulled by the civil tiihuna1of the Seine and that poo Madame Desaint he Bee left without Rede and thrown on tin Charity of strangers the lady president add cases Jia a come to her know due wherefore it practice of your frenchmen marrying women in King and deserting the m. N going to France is by no n eans in comm enormities of this kind there i in reality in redress. The French Law is unyielding on the subject and it is not t All Likely to be changed. How then it May be asked is an englishwoman who desires to marry a Frenchman to make a marriage which will hold Good in French territory by going before the nearest French Consul and hav ing the civil marriage cer Twohy according to the prescriptions of the French civil code performer before him in France this ceremony is always performed before the hair of the commune or District in which one or both the parties reside an abroad French consuls Are authorised to act in r. Similar capacity. Of curse after being Civi h married before the Freish Consul a religious marriage can lie gone through according to the Creed and wishes of the contracting parties and this will make the contract thoroughly binding a there is no court in the Wor d that can annul or set it aside.
