Decree Granted Against Rev. Or.
Dixon Attentions 10 Wealthy
Widow the Cause.

Boston, Mass, Dec. 2.-Mrs. Anne
Dixon has received decree OF absolute
divorce from the Rev. Joseph X. Dixon,
who was charged with misconduct with
the widow OF Representative Amermann.
of Scranton, Pa.
Mrs. Dixon testified that she had seen
her husband and the widow In a room
together. having bored holes in the doors
and ceiling. DIR. Dixon's charges or cru
city were dismissed.
The court made no disposition of the
children, two or whom are now practical
ly under control OF their father ani the
other Of her mother.
Mrs. Dixons counsel asked for aliinony,
because Mrs. Amermann had left to pr.
Dixon about $4,000. AS the will OF Mrs.
Amermsnn is being fought by her iela-
tives, IL is likely TO be year before
this question is settled.
The most interesting incident of the d.
voice trial was the introduction or love
letters with a floral code, which Mrs.
DixoRs lawyers contended had been writ
ten by DIR. Dixon To Mrs. Amermann.
Mrs. Amermann became well acqusint-
ed with DIR. Dixon while she was building
a memorial cottage for her husband Mr..
Amermann had been the clergyman
friend. The widow left an estate of
about $3.50. 900. In the win DIR. Dixon was
given $50, 900 and Mrs. Amcrmann's horses
for life, and $4,000 TO keep them.
