WOMAN is FOUND
NEARLY FROZEN
Mrs. Peyer, Who Says Her
Husband Put Her Out,
Is Rescued.

Driven from her bed and turned out
OF doors into the cold and snow at 2
o'clock yesterday morning, Mrs. E. J..
Peyer, the wife of a tinsmith at 1863
Charles street, was found almost froz-
en- by a party of young people who
were returning home from a dance
shortly before O'Clock
The woman was clad in only a thin
night dress, and there was nothing to
protect her bare feet from the ice and
snow. In this condition she had been
exposed for almost an hour, and when
discovered was almost unconscious
from the terrible exposure.
The members of the dancing party
found the woman lying on her own
doorstep, but her husband, who had
become angered at her during the
night, had locked the doors after
throwing her out, and she could not
again get into the house.
one of the young men in the party
who discovered her placed his over
coat about her. the young women di-
v1ded their warm wraps with her. and
she was taken to the home of one of
the girls and cared for until morning.
When first found Mrs. Peyer was in
very serious condition, but yesterday
she recovered sufficiently to come down
town and swear out a complaint for
her husbands arrest.
Mrs. Peyer says her husband has a
terrible temper, and when he was
aroused from his sleep by something
yesterday morning he blamed her for
it, and after cursing her for a time, he
dragged her from the bed and opening
the door pushed her out into the cold
locked the door and went back to
bed. The woman tried to get him to
open the door, but the husband paid
no attention to her appeals, and finally,
becoming numb from the cold, she be-
came exhausted and sank down upon
the ice and snow, where she was dis
covered an hour later. Her feet were
badly frozen, and had she remained
there another hour there is little doubt
but that she would have been frozen
to death.
E. J. Peyer the husband, is tin
smith and conducts a business of his
own at 500 Rice street For several
months, Mrs. Peyer says, there has
been trouble at the home, and upon
numerous occasions her husband has
threatened her.
Peyer was arrested yesterday, and
when arraigned before Judge F'inehout
yesterday afternoon pleaded not guilty
and gave bail for his appearance in
court Friday.
