husband, W. r. Ward, known to the

They were married July 2, 1893
Three children were born Of th
union: ElwoOd, aged years; Edna
aged 2 years, and Ruth, aged ST.
months. A daughter OF Ward, by hi
first wite-Sarah, aged y years
have lived with them since thei
marriage. At times IL Is charged
Ward would leave his wife and child
rem for weeks, leaving his wife with
out money or food in the house. Las
