DOMESTIC TROUBLES.
A Grellton Couple on the Ragged
Edge at Perrysburg.

A few days since a couple of strange
ladies were in Perrysburg making in
quiries for Jas r. Tyler, and upon in
vestigetion it was discovered that one
of them giving the name of Mrs. Lake
was very anxious to secure the legal
gentleman's service in procuring a di-
vorce from one ]. A. Lake, of Grellton,
Henry county. Later i'm the day Lake
himself appeared upon the scene search
ing for his wife. He stated that Andrew
Scothorn, head sawyer for the Dewey
Stave Co., at GrelltOn, has wife living
in Clyde, and from whom he separated
some time since on account of connubi-
al infelicity, and that he has broken in
upon the domestic happiness of the
Lake family, causing a separation and
the attempt to procure divorce. He
claims that the plans were for Mrs.
Lake to proceed to Perrysburg, and
with the assistance of her sister, file pa
pers for divorce; then go to South To-
ledo, where she was to meet Mr.. Scot
horn, and the two proceed on their way
rejoicing.
When Mr.. Lake appeared upon the
scene, his wife was perambulating the
streets and visiting the dry goods stores
lodging in and out of doors in order to
evade her husband, whom she knew
was close at hand. Since the proposed
meeting at tSQuth Toledo, neither Mrs
Lake nor Mr.. ScOthorn have been heard
of by the deserted husband.
In answer to the above Mr.. Scothorn
denies that he went away with Mrs
Lake, and in conclusion says in a com.
/ rnuninoti tion fn tho Dnof.
AS to the said Scothorn causing her tC
leave him said Scothorn had never
spoken q dozen words to Mrs. Lake be.
fore she left Lake the last time and had
never heard of Lake or wife until aftel
she had left him three times. Lake il
a man that couldn't get trusted in the
town for sack of -four, his wife having
to buy groceries in her own name be
fore they parted. Think Lake has ont
friend in this place in the person of ,
married woman and that he spends th'
most of his time with her while he
husband is at work. AS to the deserted
husband not seeing either Mrs. l.. o.
Scothorn after the proposed meeting il
South Toledo we both came back on tn,
same train with Lake she from Soutl
Toledo and myself from Toledo. Mrs
Lake has been staying with her folk
near here and have been saving ever,
day within ten rods of J. AIS house
The way he failed to see them was be
cause his eyes were not in condition tt
see. AS to the statement about mysel
and wife, will say they are true will
the exception of the cause of separation
in which there is no truth. Lake is no
only noted wife-beater, but sheep
thief and bow-legged monstrosity.

der, was interviewed recently bya re-
porter for the Enquirer In the course
of the interview the reporter asked him
if he was still hopeful, to which he re-
piled: "Not very; though mother is.
She will hope against hope as long as
she sees me above earth. | tell you
mother is the best friend a man will
ever have. When Others spit upon you
she will wipe it off, and whatever a son
may do a mother will remain steadfast

Perry's singing Birds

Perry was q rich planter in the
PatuXent Valley, with broad vein of
humor. The broad, deep Patuxent af-
forded an excellent cruising ground to
the British fleet after il had landed the
British troops. One day while the
British ships were lying in the river
Perry got well-flled hornets nest
plugged up its opening. put on his
working clothes and rowed up TO the
flagship. In the uncouth local dialect
he offered the gray ball to the young
officers as a nest full of rare singing
birds of remarkable voice, Of unusual
intelligence and warm attachments.
The officers dubbed together and offer
ed him 4 guinea for his birds. This he
gratefully accepted and then he handed
the nest TO the unsuspecting Young
men. de suggested to them that it
would be well not 10 open the nest till
he got 10 shore, inasmuch as the af-
fectionate little things might follow
their old friend. This was an excellent
suggestion. To make sure the officers
took the nest into the cabin and shut
the doors, leaving marine on deck to
catch Perry's signal. At the word the
officers opened the nest. and without
any unnecessary delay, the cabin door
also. With somewhat undignified
haste, officers, marines, and seaman
swarmed to the bulwarks, and then
over the sides, in comical confusion,
closely followed by Perry's afrectionate
little singing birds. Perry laughed till
he cried, a. one by one the Britishers
