i
; Lemoyne Woman in Need of Help
: Since Her Husband Abandoned
Her a Month Ago
With only the food which neighbors
in the vcinity have sent to them and
a half ton of coal which a benevolent
person delivered yesterday, Mrs. Roy
C. Peters and her two children, of Le
moyne, ft boy, aged two years, and a j
girl fours years older, are anxiously
awaiting the return of the husband
i and father who abandoned them on
December 16. Until the coal was de
! livered the house was like an icebox,
! there being no fire to give them
warmth. Mrs. Peters is in very deli
cate health just at present and on the
verge of a spell of sickness. She is too
weak to be moved to the home of her
parents back of Mt. Holly, her parents
offering to take her home.
On December 16 Peters, who-was a
lineman in the employ of the Harris
burg Light and Power Company, sent
a note to his wife, saying he was
going away. Immediately the woman
made an effort to locate him, but she
failed. Two weeks ago she received a
card from him, mailed in Massachu
setts, on which he stated he was "going
on, good-by." Since then she has re
ceived no word from him except
through friends, who say that he Is In
Portlaud, Maine. Mrs. Peters made
out. an information before a justice of
the peace in Lemoyne to compel him
to retuijp to his family. She does not
want him prosecuted, but simply asks
tht he come home and provide for his
family.
Relatives Try to Assist
At present Mrs. Peters' mother is
with her, nursing her and looking after
the household duties. The woman's
parents and her four brothers are do
ing all they can to help her, but are
not meeting with mtich success. The
father and one brother are out of work
at present. Another brother has some
spinal trouble and can work only part
time. Two other brothers with fami
lies of their own are working part time
because of the lack of work in their
places of employment.
The Peters home is cleanly and nice
ly furnished, giving evidence of the
welldoing ofi the father and husband
at some time. Mrs. Peters says that
in two or three other occasions he had
gone away without telling her, but he
only stayed a few days.
Strange Man Appears
To add more to her trouble, Mrs.
Peters said to-day that a strange man
called at her home about 10 o'clock a
few nights ago and asked her and her
little son to accompany him and he
would take her to Peters. She de
clined and closing the door, bolted It.
The next night the man returned again
and stood near the house for more
tlia nan hour. Mrs. Peters is unable to
understand his actions and since then
has not left the home.
Residents of Lemoyne and members
of the various church societies of the i
town are to-day volunteering their
services to help Mrs. Peters and her
children until the dark clouds pass.
Efforts Made to Get
Hall For Basketball
Professor William Bowman, of the
Lemoyne High School, who is an ar
dent basketball fan, is endeavoring to
secure a hall for the Lemoyne ex-High
School team for the present season.
The team, which last year made an ex
cellent record, has not played this sea
son because of the inability to procure
adequate quartern Last year the
games were played in a room in the
school building but the place was so
small that it was "nick-named" the
"cigar box" by visiting teams. There
is a large storage building along the
Cumberland Valley Railroad a short
distance above the Lemoyne bridge
and it is this place that Professor
Bowman is endeavoring to secure. If
a lease is gotten on the building the
basketball team will make an effort
to raise money by public subscription
to put the floor in condition and build
beats.
