Fergus Falls, Mimi, May IA story of
what appears to be the desertion of a wife and
elopement with her sister came. to- light in the
probate court here today -. -.
Louis Harbig, a young farmer of this vicinity,
left home several weeks ago. stating that he
was going to North Dakota to purchase land,
and his sister-inSlaw. Miss Clara Koramoe, an
attractive girl of. 49, accompanied him, going
ostenslbly to Breckenridge where she was to
visit other relatives. 49, ~ss., -: -.s- ~
Both were to write from time to time, but nc
letters arrived, and Mrs. Harbig finally became
suspicious and telephoned the persons whom her
sister was to visit in Breckenridge; only to find
that they had neither seen or heard anything
of her. Mr.. Harbig left his wife in destitute
circumstances, and she has come to. the unwel-
come conclusion that he has eloped.
Mr.. Harbig has been acting guardian for
Miss koramoe, and she has made her home with
him and his wife since the death of her mother
about two years ago. Mrs. Harbig has sus-
pected for some time that he was becoming in
fatuated with his ward, but disiked to- create
family discord, and made protests. He was
also acting as administrator Of her mother
estate, and his disappearance has created u
tangle in their probate affairs. 49,
