Col. Joseph P. Frisbie and Mrs. Eliza Griffin were married in Grace Church, Jersey City, on Monday. As the happy pair were leaving the church, the groom was arrested on a charge of bigamy, at the instance of the bride’s brother. The party were driven to the Police Station and after a hearing the Colonel was bound over to appear and answer the charge. It appears that his wife procured a divorce from him ten years ago, the decree prohibiting him from marrying again. The wife remarried some time since, and now the ex-husband evidently thinks he should be permitted to try it again.
