GONE INSANE
From the Reading Of Yellow Covered
Literature.
A SAD CASE.

AsAD CASE.
Many, if not most of our people re-
member the old German by the name
of Odder who formerly lived out in the
edge of the foothills about thirty miles
from this city, and also that he had a
daughter by the name of Mary. She
was a bright, intelligent girl, and about
agar ago left her fathers home and,
in company with q young man named
Frank Mason, went to Laramie City,
where they were married. Some called
it an elopement, but such was net
really the case She went from home
and married him without the consent
Of her parents, but it was not, in fact,
a genuine elopement.
The couple returned to the vicinity
of the parental residence, where they
resided for a time, but eventually To-
Gated on a ranch up ON the Chug, where
they have since resided. At the time
of her marriage to Frank Mason, Miss
Odder was only about seventeen years
of age, a mere child almost, yet bright
and intalliaent nut NTH a, -;no,;nation
to pursue light literature, commonly
called yellow covered literature"
Previous to their removal to the
Chug, it is said that the mother of the
young wife was very bitter in the de-
