Seven Living Wives
New York, Aug. 15—Convicted of bigamy on his confession that
he has seven living wives, one of whom he married twice, Charles Hugh Wilson,
48 years old, former Y.M.C.A. secretary, was sentenced today to three years and
six months in Sing Sing prison where, he announced, he will take up prison
reform work.
Judge Madhams told the prisoner he would have given him five
years, the maximum sentence, but deducted 18 months, the period spent by Wilson
in a Wisconsin penitentiary for a larceny which another man afterward confessed
to having committed.
