Asheville, Feb. 20—Apparently jealous and angry, it is said, because Rome Guthrie, convicted of bigamy, was sentenced to four years in the state prison, wife No. 1 and wife No. 2 clashed in the lobby of the courthouse today immediately after the judgment was pronounced by Judge James J. Webb in Superior court.
“Look what you have done now. Neither one of us can have him for four years,” wife No.2 is said to have stated, just before the fight started. It was reported that wife No. 1 struck wife No. 2, knocking her down twice.
