Nellie A. Delano of Covert, by A. II.
Chandler her solicitor, seeks a legal
separation from her husband, one Lin
coin +. Delano, to whom she says she
was married just five years ago and
with whom she lived until the 29th of
May, 1893, when, as she alleges, she
left him on account of his cruel treat
ment, filing her bill for divorce on the
first day of the present month, the fifth
anniversary of her happy wedding day.
Such cruel treatment, she states,
commenced soon after said marriage,
and consisted of neglect to properly
provide for her physical comfort in the
way of needful clothing and necessary
provisions, by using profane and vulgar
language toward her, by threatening to
shoot her, by shaking her violently in
anger, by being, himself, for long time
past, almost continually under the in
fluence of intoxicating liquor and by
falsely charging her with marital inf
deity.
In consideration of all which and for
various other causes enumerated in her
bill of complaint, she prays the court,
by its Decree To set her free from the
CALLING bond that unites her TO an un-
loved and unloving husband, that she
may once more be as in the days of her
youth, happy in the knowledge of the
fact that she is her own mistress and is
not compelled to call any man her lord
and master

New BAVARIA, o., Aug. 6, 1883.
The most severe storm, not only of this sea-
son, but for several years, passed over this
section on last Tuesday evening. The heav-
ems were, so to say, one sheet of fame, and
peal followed peal in quick succession. The
lightning struck in different places but did
not do any damage except the destruction of
the Lutheran church at Holgate. This is
quite loss to that congregation, but il the
members thereof will follow their Catholic
brethren on the Ridge, they will at once 60

the many churches now adorning Pleasant
township, which will soon, like Brooklyn the

Our township house which has long stood
in need of repairs, has been lately let to Mr..
j. B. Mess to be thoroughly repaired and fit-
ted up in fine style with rostrum, iron railing
and other fixtures. If this house or rather
the frame Of the same could speak, it could
probably tell more than the "oldest inhabi-
tant" of the township. It was first used for
years as church for the Reformed congre-
cation, then 1t was bought by the Board of
Education, removed to another site and used
as a school house, and finally when it became
too delapidated to be used as shooting gal
lery for the young ideas Of district No. &, it
was again removed to its present site by the
township trustees. who have been using it ever
since as voting place and holding other pub
lie meetings in. Tho roof, siding and plas-
tering have in the course of time been several
times repleced, bat the, frame, a substantial
old fashioned timber frame, is still as sound
as can be. l.,i -sei -s- g. s.f'af.aa
