Mrs.NMinnie Ray, a widow lady of
some thirty-five summers, who resides,
on Agency hill, Mankato, has started
an action for alleged breach of prom.
Use against VIM. Conrad, ST., whose,
home is in Johnsonville, this county
Mrs. Ray wants $1,000 to recompense
the damage inflicted upon her affec--.
tons by the.disappointments of Cupid,
according to the Mankato Free Press.
As she has had previous experience
with married life, the amount of dam
ages which she desires would indicate
that she does not look upon marriage
as failure. Mrs. Ray alleges that
Mr.. Conrad, who is widower and
aged about forty-three years, has
courted her for some months, and that
about three months ago he asked her
to become his wife. She did not re-
mark, How suddenn' or promise to
be sister to him, but gave her con-
sent unfalteringly. Christmas day was
named for the wedding, but she said
that Mr. Conrad desired a postpone
ment, and then Dec Both was agreed
upon. She had her preparations made,
but disappointment again stared her
in the face. She now believes that
Mr.. Conrad does not intend to marry
her at all, but has simply been toying
with her affection. She has employed
Schmitt & Wilson, and the complaint
has been forwarded for service upon
Mr.. Conrad. The latter is said to be-
a man of means, having much land in
Redwood county and interests else
where. 1t is said that the reason why
Mr.. Conrad does not marry Mrs. Ray
is the objection which his children
raise to the match. What his defense
is will become know known when the
answer is filed.
