65 Vt. 482 | Vt. | 1893
This is an action to recover the damage sustained by the plaintiff through the death of her husband, as the result of intoxication caused by liquor unlawfully furnished by the defendant. We find no error in the rulings of the court below. The marriage could be established by the testimony of a witness who was present at the ceremony. Testimony of this character is direct evidence of the fact of marriage. 2 Greenl. Ev. s. 461. State v. Hodgskins, 19 Me. 155 (36 Am. Dec. 742). See Northfield v. Vershire,
Judgment affirmed.
