join the girl for whom he sacrificed
his wife, children, home and career.
His love for Julia Bovine, the pretty

After a prayer meeting one spring
evening, Cordova and the girl met.
Both were troubled by the accusa-
tions of the girls father, who had be-
come suspicious of their relationship.
A trolley car came along, and the
pair fed without any prearranged
plan, so said the minister, though
this was doubted by all Of South Riv-

The wife and her three children
were left penniless, for the clipping
