Higginsville Post:-"The wife Mr.. Green
B. Clark, of this city, eloped with q man
named John Guilty last Wednesday night, the
two going to Sedalis from here on the Mo.
Pacific; where they went to from there is not
known. Clark works In Campbells coal
shaft and also keeps q boarding house for
miners. several OF whomwere staying with him
at the time. Guilty, who is q man about IS
years Of age, claiming to be from Kentucky,
came to Higeinsville six weeks ago from Lex
lngton 10 work In the mines here, and went
to board at Clark's. He had been there but
u week until Clark and the boarders began to
notice that q peculiar intimacy had sprung up
between him and Mrs. Clark, and they were
seen several times in compromising actions.
A watch was finally set on the pair and
Clark discovered enough to satisfy him of his
wife's infdelity, and he charged her with her
sin. and she acknowledged 1t, and said that
she loved Guilty better than she did her hus-
band, and was going OF with him, and &C.
cordingly she went Of as above stated. The
woman's name Is Ophelia Clark, she is Al
years Of age, has been married to Clark II
years and has five children-four boys and q
fr.rl TIa1 vo,a 1f,,-I l., 0.-l-- D.
county. Mo-, and Mrs. Clark was held In high
esteem by her nelghbors for virtue and hon.
estY Of chaascter. Her insane action is wholly
unaccountable, especially as the fellow
Guilty is an unconscionsble vagabond, who
from bis own admission, has had two wives,
one Of whom he says Is still living. She
wanted to take the youngest child with her,
the girl, aged nearly two years, but her hus-
band would not allow 1t, and she stepped
out In the world, forsaking husband, nome,
children, turning her back upon good name,
friends, all, and for what: To be finally cast
of, and die, like q dog, In the gutter. The
innocent children and the sad hearted hus-
band have the sympathy Of all In IN sffliction,
the depths of which it Is, happily, given to
| but few to measure. Guilty had no money
when he left, and Clark says he thinks his
wife had but little, If any Mr.. Clark will
sue for a divorce at once. And thus ends
another chapter in the history Of human life;
a chapter written IN the blood of breaking
hearts and blotted with tears from the eyes
of helpless innocence" Mr.. and Mrs. Clark
are well known in Lexington, having lived
here for several years.
