Ardmore was last week the theatre
for a most sensational drama in
real life. the denouement of which
occurred Wednesday and resulted
in the severing of family ties in
two households.
The principals are an -erstwhile
prominent business man of this
city and a married woman of splen-
did connections and hitherto un-
blemished reputation.
1t seems that the transactions
leading up to the finale have been
transpiring for several months,
but only on Wednesday last were
explanations demanded and an un-
derstandlng reached between the
parties interested.
As result Of this conference
two homes are deserted and two
families separated. while the man
and the woman in the case have
departed and are now supposed to
be in company at some place not
definitely known.
Be this as it may the public in
sists that a sensation has been
sprung and sentiment is strongly
against the man who could deliber-
ately assassinate the happiness of
two homes, forsake a wife who was
devoted to him and cast a shadow
over the life of another woman
whose name has ever been held in
respect by all who knew her.
