Second Baptist church. Close to the place
where the new building was going up, lived
Mrs. Nolan, widow. Nelson began a
filtration with her pretty 18-year old daugh-
ter, and the two ended 1t by marrying.
Then began double life, Nelson living part
Of the time with Mrs. Nolan. his mother-in- =
law, and part of the time with,
his other wife on Houston street.
sAfter awhile he went Unexpectedly
to Florida. up to which time no suspicion
Yves aroused. IL developed later, however. =.
that he went there to see a third wife,
While he was away an investigation was
begun and soon after he returned the two
Atlanta wives wer0 brought face to face.
Nelson succeeded in escaping until caught
fn Montgomery to-day. Still further in
vestigation goes to show that Nelson has
two more wives than tho three directly in-

making five in all. There will be merry
