BEAT HIS WIFE AND
THREW TOTS INTO STREET,

These md Grosser Indignities
Charged to Husband In Divorce
Suit.
Mrs. Francis Cornelia Denmark filed
a sensational libel for divorce against
her husband, John Morgan Denmark,
in the Superior Court yesterday, in
which is embodied charges of inhumane
conduct. Some of the specific acts of
cruelty are set forth in full in her
petition.
The couple were married in the SOs,
there being six children as fruit of the
union. Nearly all of these are girls.
Since shortly after the nuptial knot
was tied and she plighted her troth,
she says. she has been the object of
his wrath.
Naturally of an irascible tempera-
ment, this state becomes so intensified
with drink that while under the in
fiuence of intOXicants he is rendered
crazy and frantic, doing and saying
things partaking of the savage and
barbaric." So reads the petition; and
continuing: Rendering him while so
seized, british, cruel and inhuman,
then and there causing him to grow
demonical and infict upon your petit
toner and children gross indignities
and hardships.'
On one occasion, the petition recites
the husband had bodily pitched the
streets. He is, the wife declares, a
man of inhuman instincts, possessing
not a fatherly trait One instance re-
lated is where he whipped one of the
little girls because on coming home
he found her suspended in a swing in
the door. She did not move away fast
enough to suit his fancy. SO he grabbed
l. Ia,- ,aly{ y{,1ar 1,
turning upon his wife, who was inn
portuning him to desist, slapped her
down.
A pathetic incident which the wife
tells of in her petition for relief is as
follows: Her husband left her without
money or provisions one morning. In
order to get something for dinner, she
went into the garden and picked two
ears of corn. Then she gave her chill
dren two soda bottles, telling them
to go and sell them for a penny, and
with the penny buy an onion for their
dinner. On the way to the store they
met their father, and hurried back
home. The father on reaching home
threatened to kill her.
Mrs. Denmark declares that her hus-
band owns combination green grocery
and wood yard, as well as a house
and lot on Farm street, worth $4600,
also 400 acres of land in Bulloch coun-
ty, another house and fifty head of
cattle, as well as mules, horses, carts
and wagons. These she says he in
tends do get rid of in order to defeat
her right to aiimony. She asks that
he be enjoined from disposing of the
propertya that a reasonable sum as
alimony be awarded her, and that she
be granted a divorce from him.
The wife is now living with her
brother. She is represented by Twiggs
& oliver and Simon Gazan. The hear
ing in the alimony, and injunction case
was assigned by Judge Barrow for
Oct. 1e.
