The "south Norwalk Fire 'Depart-

iBurgess married on June 9 1909,
and on Ndvember 22 of the same year
his wife took a “leave of absence,"
which proved to be permanent. For!
the past five years. Burgess ha been
paying the taxes on the property he
deeded to his wife, at least he claimsi
so in his complaint. and he says that
after she left him she assumed the
name of "F‘alkenstein.".
In the complaint Burgess said that:
the testimony in the New York Su-
preme court showed that his wife‘
was married to a also named Victor
_ Ealkenetein in 1908. the year before
, she became Burgess wife, and that
. she did not get a divorce from Falk-'
‘enstein. Burgess claims that uponl
- those grounds he is entitled to have
the property restored to him. What’
the case was in the New York court, l
. Burgess does not say. but he does
say- that the property was deeded to
