FROM THIRD

Mrs. Jonathan W. Ellis, whose
residence was ransacked by a bur-
glar while she was in court We'd

morning before Judge e. H. Sulli-
van. Mrs. Ellis was put upon the
stand and testified that Ellis was
her third husband The first is still
living. but Hirschfield, her Sec
ond, died and left $4,000 estate.
The most of this money, she said,
was lost in a bank failure. She
married Ellis a year ago in October
and ON ain. 4, 1906. left him be-
cause of cruelty. She asks for
temporary alimony, suit money and
attorney fees and makes the plea
that she has not enough money to
support herself and child.
To disprove this Ellis brought up
the matter of the Hirschfield es-
tate. He alleges also that follow
ing her desertion of their home she
went to department stores and Sc
cured goods on his credit. She adj
mitted that she bought $40 coat,
silk skirt and other articles.
Mrs. Ellis appears to be highly
educated and her husband a hard
working laborer. He denies that
he was cruel to her, and makes
the defense that her extravagant
tastes was the cause of the trou-
BILE She denies It, In the settle
ment of the Hirschfield estate she
was made custodian and 1t Is the
purpose of her husband to show
that she has ample means for the
support of herself and child.

On Wednesday of last week, Feb. 6,
1907, there passed away, in the person
of Mr.. John Vivian, one of the oldest
residents of Diamond Grove. He was
born ~ the 9th Of February, 1874, in
the ta&n of Camborne, Cornwall, Eng
land. When about nine years old, he
came 20 this country with his mother,
(his father having come three years
previously and after a stay of seven
years in Dodgeville, settled in Diamond
Grove, where he lived for the rest of
his lite. On the 9th of May, 1857, he
was married to Mary Jane Inch If Dia-
mond Grove and of this union there
were born twelve children, nine of
whom are still living, namely: William
f Diamond Grove, Calvin of Linden,
Thomas of Lost Grove, Mrs. VIM. Rule
of Edmund, Herbert of Mineral Point,
Mrs. William Arthur Of Lost Grove,
and Gertrude, Ethel and Raymond, who
are living at the parental home. He
also leaves to mourn his departure, one
brother and two sisters.
About thirty eight years ago deceas-
ed was converted in the Diamond Grove
school house, and at once identified
himself with the church militant, re-
naming a consistent member until call
ed to join the church triumphant last
| Wednesday evening. 1t is certain he
will tie much missed, for he was an af-
fectionate husband and father, an hon
est and upright man in every way, a
good neighbor and highly respected by
every one who knew him, a successful
farmer and an excellent citizen. His
dust will rest in peace until the Resur.
rection morn, and we are sure the
hearts of a whole host of friends beat
in trrest sympathy with the bereft ones.
