Jacob Ray of Keytesville, who, like
Peter, the Pumpkin eater, had wife
and couldn't keeper-in fact, Jacob
has had several wives and couldn't
keep them, has brought suit for di-
vorce from the lady of his last matri-
monial venture, who was formerly
Mrs. Oliver Coy of five miles south of
town, to whom he was married on the
24th day of May, 1897. She cruelty
deserted Jacob less than one month
thereafter, but returned again in about
three weeks by permission of Mr.. Ray
under the promise that she would do
better" But on the 9TH of July, 1897,
however, she again left the plaintiff
without any reasonable or lawful cause,
utterly abandoning him as her hus-
band, and has refused and still refuses
to live with plaintiff. Plaintiff states
in his petition that he faithfully de-
meaned himself as the husband of
defendant, and at all times treated
her with kindness and affection Not
withstanding his kind and considerate
treatment of defendant, she deserted
plaintiff. Wherefore plaintiff is dis
consolate, and would doubtless like
to have another trial as a benedict of
some other woman, who would prop
erly appreciate dear, loving husband,
and therefore prays the court that he
be released from the bonds of matri-
mony heretofore contracted with his
last faithless spouse. Col. o. P. Ray
is plaintiffs attorney. In justice to
both the attorney and his client we
viii say that the legal adviser and the
plaintiff are not related.
