Purcell is no stranger. The despatch
reads as follows:
Local society was thrown into a
Juror today by the news that Frank
Purcell was yesterday sued for di-
vorce by Mary A. Moss. who alleges
that she was married to Purcell under
the name OF Pierce ]. Moss. Purcell,
as he is known here, is president and
reputed owner Of the Purcell Safe
Company of this city. A few weeks
ago he caused surprise by being seen
in San Francisco with the widow of
the late A. 7. Vandevater, racetrack
owner and former State Senator
"The couple registered at the ST..
Francis Hotel as Mr.. and Mrs. Pur-
cell, but the marriage has since been
denied by Purcell and by friends OF
the woman.
Mrs. Moss says that she was mar
ried to a man who called himself
Pierce ]. Moss, in Boston. October
2o, 1895. The woman states that two
years after the wedding her husband
confessed that he had deceived her
as to his name and that he was really
Patrick Frank Purcell.
"The plaintiff alleges further that
Purcell was divorced in Seattle from
Mary P. Purcell, to whom he was
married in Clonmel, Ireland, in 1885, J
and whom he abandoned in 1899.
Mrs. Purcell declares that the defend
ant owns one-half interest with
George B. Celia in the Portland Safe
Company and in the Pacific Safe
Company, OF Spokane, and all Of the
Purcell Safe Company, Of this city.
She says she and Purcell lived to-
gether FIVE years in Chicago at the
Lexington Hotel, during which time
Purcell conducted the Kentucky Sales
Stables. After that Purcell, the com
plainant sets forth, engaged in the
liquor business in St. Louis and from
there moved to Portland in 1904"
