A Breach of Promise Case.
For some time, it is alleged, one of our prominent citizens has paid more or less attention to a young and beautiful widow of this city, forgetting, or at least not heeding the advice of the immortal Mr. Weller to his son Samuel, to "beware of the vidders."
He now claims that he was not serious in his intentions and that he was not attached to her, but however that may have been the widow became attached to him, and as he seems to have lost interest in the matter, she has attached his property, which is a form of attachment that he does not enjoy.
