HUSBAND AGAINST WIFE.
A Bride of Sixteen Arrested on a
Charge of Perjury.

tuuEEe " ECIJutys
Charles Bacon, of Linden street, was
arrested Nov. 10, 1896, on a charge pre-
ferred by Emma Bertha Dryer, also Of
this city. Racon was held under $500
bail to appear at court. A few weeks
after the hearing in Alderman Howes
Office word reached here that the couple
had been married at Newark, N. ]. A
week ago Mrs. Bacon, returned to
Scranton and brought suit against her
husband for desertion and non-support
Bacon was held under bail.
Yesterday Bacon's father II. Glen
Bacon, had his daughter-in-law arrest
ed on a charge of perjury. The elder
Mr. Bacon claims that the girl at the
time Of the assault on Nov. 10, 1896,
was over 16 years Of age. She and her
moth~r swore at that time that she was
born January IA, 1881. Mr.. Bacon, the
father, investigated recently and
among the evidence found which war
rants charge of perjury was the
church record at the Lutheran church,
Newark, N. j. This record, II is said,
states that Emma Bertha Dryer was
born January II, 1880, thus she would
have been over 16 years at the time
of the assault.
At the hearing yesterday afternoon
Attorney Clarence NJ. Balentine repre-
sented Bacon and Attorney George w.
Beale appeared for the defense. After
hearing several witnesses, the hearing
was continued until Friday, Aug. 90,

Bertha Dryer present as a witness.
