BE WRITES A LETTER.
A. G. Everett Sends His Wife Letter Say
ing Goodbye.


There is no longer any question about
A. G. Everett leaving the city and also
deserving, for the time being at least,
his wife and family.
Yesterday Mrs. Everett received a
letter from her husband which was
dated at Wichita ON Monday, Nov. IL,
and placed in one of the mail boxes IN
the suburbs of the city. For this rea-
son the letter was delayed In its de-
livery, net being taken up by the letter
carriers until Tuesday afternoon and
finally delivered yesterday.
In the letter Mr.. Everett states that
he was tired of living with his wife on
account Of her jealousy and he intended
to shift for himself. He left his business
i'm an unsettled state and said that he
owed a few bills, among which was
grocery bill to F. NJ. Hawley, meat bill
TO Holden Brothers and also some mon
ey ITO Mr.. Davidson, but that he would
send the money for those accounts in
a few days.
A representative Of the Eagle called
az THE family residence last night ON
South MaI'tinson avenue, to inquire of
Mrs. Everett in reference to the letter
she was reported to have received. She
said:
Yes, I have the letter and he lays
all the blame for our troubles on me,
which is unjust. We have lived togeth-
er for years and have raised family Of
seven children, some of whom are mar
ried and doing well. We have daugh-
ter at Reece, Kan, who is postmastress.
We have never had amy trouble and
have always got along nicely. Mr..
Everett was apparently the soul OF
honor, a nd I never had cause to think
~. L. 1t.
until I saw things with my own eyes
that looked a little suspicious, provid-
ing had been a. jealous woman, which
l never was. / noticed that he would
take a certain woman In his buggy over
to the city almost every morning. Yet
/ believed this was only a neighborly
act, and accidently mentioned the mat
ter ITO alim when he flew into a rage
and denied THAT he had ever taken the
woman in his buggy. This was too much
for 1 had seen him with my own eyes.
From this time ON he grew remorse-
full and sullen, and since he has left 1
have learned things that do not look
just right. / am glad to learn that the
woman who caused our first trouble
did not go with him, but I learn from
the young man Neiderlander that he
frequently had other women visitors to
his office.
"Als far as know myself Mr.. Everett
has never been guilty of any wrong do
fngs. except by lying ITO me about some
thing 1 saw with my own eyes. For
THE sake of the family 1 hope that he
will repent OF his rash act and return.
AS far as I can learn he took about $500
with him, and IT seems that he has
been planning this escapade for some
time.
Il candbdly think he has only been
fndisc-eet and has placed himself in
a position TO be accused of something
of which hope and pray he is innocent
He is almost Ga years of age and has a
bright record both as a soldier and chti-
zen, but when a persons often hears of
The actions Of such men as Joe Slower
going astray they cannot walk too
straight.
This Is all can say about the mat
ter now, and ! would rather that even |
this much should not be said, in print !
but l believe the public has a right to /
know all sides of the case and / am |
perfectly willing that Mr. Everett |
should tell his side. This news viii be |
a hard blow to the children, but / can |
not feel as though have done anything |
TO bring this trouble about"
