END OF A ROMANCE.


Judge feathers, Of Room 2, Superior
Court, yesterday heard the Guisinger di-
vorce case for the second time. The case
was tried in 1901 on complaint Of Ray Gull
singer, the young wife, and the court de-
clined to grant the divorce. This time both
husband and wife asked for divorce
Joseph Guisinger. the husband, does not
object to a divorce being granted, but he
wants the records to show that he got
it. The story Is rather romantic In the
spring of 1901 Mrs. Guisinger was pretty
Ray Martin and lived with her mother on
st. Clair street. She was seventeen years
old, and the man who married her was
thirty-five. He was professir in a Florida
normal school. He was here on a vacation
and became infatuated with the girl. who at
first declined to marry him because she
did not love him.
According to the evidence Guisinger en-
listed the services of Miss Martins mother
against the girl She frankly told her adj
mirer that she did not love him. but prom
ised to marry him on condition that she
to be his wife in name only until such
time as she felt she could come to him and
give him her whole heart. He accepted the
condition and they went on a wedding trip
to St. Louis. In two weeks the young wife
was back home. She had decided that she
could never give her entire love to the man
who had married her and they separated
In the first trial of the case letters were
produced that the young wife had written
to her friends here in Indianapolis while
on her honeymoon trip. These letters were
filled with vain regrets and painted the tor
ture of woman who had given herself to
a man she did not love Guisinger was rep
resented by his attorney. George Null, but
was not in court himself. Judge feathers
has taken the case under advisement.

Death Of 2. J. Es7man.

Mr.. Frank J. Harman, highly re-
spected citizen of the Providence
section, died at his home last Satur-
day, af,er an illness of about two
weeks, in the 72nd year of his age.
Mr.. Harmsn was prominent in the
community in which he resided and
took leading part in every legiti-
mate movement looking toward the
upbuilding CT his county and the
elevation ofscciety. Like the Master
whom he did so dearly love and to
whose service his time and his tai
ents were consecrated, he went about
doing good, cheering the disconsolate,
visiting the sick, and in the house OF
mourning his presence was a bene-
diction. To the homes of those
whose ipfrmstives prevented them
from waiting upon the Lord, he went
at regularly appointed times, and
spoke words Of sympathy and en-
couragement and pointed them to
the man of sorrows, who was &C.
quainted with their griefs," and was
able and willing to heal their sffiic-
tions and give them a home in heaven.
In his death good man has gone to
his reward.
His mortal remains we're consigned
to the bosom Of mother earth in the
Silent City Of the dead at Providence
last Sunday in the presence OF a very
large concourse of sorrowing relatives,
friends and neighbors who bad
gathered to pay their last sad rites to
their departed friend whose memory
fingered as a sweet incense. His
funeral services were conducted by
Presiding Elder Beasley who was
assisted by the Revs. W. D. Quick,
and W. E. Barre, of the Methodist
church and the Rev. J. G. Graichen
of the Lutheran church.

1929 He was educated at the Uni
versity of Virginia. He moved TO
Brooks county in 1859, and taught
school until the war when he entered
the Confederate army as private,
serving calamity until the end, rising
10 the rank of captain and suffering a
wound at Gettysburg from bullet
that was not extracted until 1868. He
was imprisoned after that battle.
He was admitted to the bar in 1865.
He was presidential elector in 1872;
state representative from BROOKS
county in 1874, 1876 and 1873; delegate
to the National Democratic Convention
in 1875, and elected to Congress in 1880,
and serving in the Forty-seventh, For
y-eghth, Forty-ninth, Fiftieth, Fifty
hrst and Fifty-second Congresses. He
married in 1865.
Both as a state and national legis-
lator, Capt. Turner ranked as an UNI
Questioned leader. In every dellb-
crate body, he has held signal and
commanding influence, due to marked
ability, thorough equipoise of temper,
rigid justice, well balanced judgment
and an immovable honesty and firm
ness, tempered with unvarying polite
ness His views as a legislator were
always heard with profound attention,
MS colleagues showing undisgulsed
eagerness 10 hear him, and his posi-
uon, as a rule, decided a major. A sound
ana safe public man, he has held pop
uidr trust at home and conspicuous in
Auence in state and national councils.
