TRUE LOVE FALTERS
NEVER, COURT HEARS
Belligerent Wife Refused Di
vorce for Sixth Time Says
She Won't Live With Hubby
Steubentllle, O., Sept. 10 Sirs.
Rosa M. Jones, wife of .Tnmes A. Jones,
a well-to-do resident of Umpire, O.,
was jesterday refused a divorce in
Common I'leos Court here when Judge
Smith denied her petition and con
tinued the suit for one year. It was
Mrs. Jones' sixth attempt to secure a
separation, and she wept when the
.judge anounced his decision.
Although the court offered no reason
for its refusal to grant a decree, it is
known that the plea of fiiend husband,
who sought to prevent a severance of
the marital ties by dedailng on the
witness stand during the healing that
he "loved his wife as of jcre and want
ed her to come back to his bed and
board," made an impression.
He told the court that his wife fre
quently had thrown scalding water on
him during their fifteen .venrs of married
life; that it was nothing unusual for
her to chase him around with the busi
ness end of a butcher knife or a cleaver,
but that he was willing to let bjgones
be bygones nnd take another chance.
Mrs. Jones during the trial appeared
unresponsive to her hub's entreaties and
icpeatcdly declared that she would not
again lhc with him.
