STOLE A BROTHERS WIFE
Elopers Found by Husband After a
Two Years Search.
Wife Brought the BrOther-in-Law
From Germany and Fell I'm
Love With Hin.

Camden, Dec. 3O.-When Frank Yeager
and the woman he has called his wife for
nearly two years stood up before Mayor
Westcott, in the police court yesterday
afternoon, their accuser was George Yeager
brother OF oneand husband ofthe other.
They were charged with living together
as man and wife, and the wronged man
told u sorry tale of how his home in Wilkes
barre T a., had been broken up; how he had
searched far and wide for the culprits. and
how he had at last found them living in
Camden.
George Yeager said he was a fairly pros
porous tradesnan in Wilkesbarrc, and had
a happy home with his wife and baby girl.
On December 13, 1894, his wife returned
to Germany for visit to the scenes OF her
childhood and their courtship. She took
the baby with her, and was gone two
months.
When she came back she brought her hus-
bands brother Frank wIthhcr There was
room enough in the home for him, and he
was made welcome, his brother finding
work for him. Things moved along with
apparent smoothness, except that Mrs.
Yeager seemed to have more regard for
Frank than is usually exhibited by sisters
in-law. George Yeager had no suspicious,
however, and continued To live in the same
even, Uneventful way. on May 25, 1895,
without any explanation al all, Mrs. Yeager
and her brother-in-law dropped out Of
sight, and t hey took the baby with them.
He sought them far and wide for two
years. and at last found them here The
woman admits all the charges.
