or Sampson county.
After a conference between the
attorney representing the woman
who brought the action and the law
yer for Mr. Field* a compromise
was reached and it appear* that
there will be no further nreeecntion.
It appear* that Mr. Fields thought
that four years' dCpwration gave him
a divorce. It is understood that

will tnstltote spit ln Sempun mua
