Almost on Leaving Altar, Mrs.
Gale Found Husband Had
"SOul Mate"
HOTEL REGISTER FIGURES
In HER SUIT FOR DIVORCE
Bride Accompanies Detective on
Trip That Proved Mr..
Gales Fickleness.

Wooed, won, wed and parted within
two months is the entry made today in
the diary of Mrs. Freda Helen Gale, a
young woman of striking appearance
who has brought suit for divorce
against her husband of six weeks.
A year ago Freda Helen Riedel, aged
20, walked into the Office of the Lehigh
Valley Railroad, in Pointer street, and
asked for a position as stenographer.
Frederick w. Gale, chief clerk, "a, and
SINGLE gave her employment.
All went we'll until the middle of last
June, when Miss Riedel was to go on
her vacation. Gale declared his love
and pressed his suit so ardently that
the couple were married July l by the
Rev. Charles f. Stanley at the home
of the brides mother, 261 Belmont ave-
nue..
Three days afterward, she declares In
her bill of complaint, filed today by
Frank A. Boettner in the Court of
Chancery at Trenton, she suspected
that there was another woman In the
case and set a trap for her newly-wed
spouse. A detective was employed by
the pretty young stenographer all un-
known to the husband. And then, she
declares, things began to happen right
away.
One night, according to the story she
told today to an EVENING STAR re-
porter, the detective asked her to ac-
company him on his investigation. The
wanderings Of the sleuth led them tc
IS Bank street, and there she found a
hotel registry that amazed her.
The other woman, she declares, had
become reality, no longer merely q
suspicion. The woman was interviewed,
and when Mrs. Gale and the detective
left they had a lengthy affidavit upon
which Mr. Boettner declares his client
will win her suit.
Miss Fannie Hoose, who gives her
age as AZ and her residence as Owego.
Tiogo county, N. Y, Gales former
home. is named as the correspondent.
Following the visit Mrs. Gale made to
the Bank street house Mrs Riedel, her
mother. ordered young Gale to leave
her home, where he had been living
with mis- bride.
"He left his bulldog here" declared
Mrs Gale today. 81 don't know why

prominent families, went UP the Hack

and established a camp in the woods at
the edge of the river. half-mile above
Oradell. intending to camp there for
two weeks. They had two tents and
provisions to last them that length of
time.

The three young men were enter

and ordered the girl to go back home.
He seemed very anxious to pick a
quarrel with the campers. but they
would not let the girl go, and defied
the lone man, who. after roundly abus-
ing them, went back down the river.
Going out last night, the three Hack
ensack men left their camp alone. and
when they returned they found it COM
pletely destroyed by fire. Bedding.
utensils. canoes and provisions were
consumed.
They were searching about the ruins
when several shots were fired at them
from across the river. They had their
rifles with them, and, dropping to the
ground, they returned the volley. From
the number of shots fired at them and
the locations from which they came
the campers judged there were about
twenty men In the attacking party.

The campers fired many rounds across
the river. and twice heard yells, as
though the bullets had found living
targets. The battle, which lasted
nearly half an hour, and during which
scores of shots were fired, shifted
down the river when the campers saw
their assailants sneaking away under
cover of the bushes. They followed
them and continued firing until their
ammunition was gone.
Believing that the attacking party
was from Oradell the campers hurried
there and found the marshal, who re-
turned to where their camp had been
with them and searched the woods, but
no trace was found of any injured par
son.
The search was continued until long
past midnight, and then inquiry was
made st adell IL any number of
young men had been seen to return to
their homes late or if any wounded
men had been seen. But they could
get no information, and today returned
to their homes here.
