Mrs. Charles H. Green of Nyack has commenced suit for absolute divorce from her husband. “Charlie” Green was a few years ago a prominent citizen of Nyack, being engaged in the insurance and real estate business with his father, but the pace became too fast for him. He is now living on a farm in Orange county with an uncle and will fight the suit.
