Declares General Belief of Neigh
bors That She Had Eloped is
Without Foundation
WILL NOT RETURN TO HUSBAND
Because Homo Life Was Not Pleas
ant Hazel Hambrisht Bishop Says
she Will Not Go Back to Her Homo
But Will Try to Get Custody of
Youngest chiId-consults Lawyer.

Mrs. Hazel Bishop, wife of Herbert
Bishop. of I.aMoille, showed UP in this
city Wednesday about as suddenly as
she disappeared from home Just one
month ago, on May II. Mrs. Bishop
claims she has been wronged by her
neighbors in their general belief that
she eloped with Norman Rygmyr,
farm hand employed by one OF her
neighbors, and wants them to know
her side OF the story.
Mrs. Bishop, who is only 10, left
home May II, bringing her two babies
to this city, where she left them with
her mother in-law, Mrs. benjamin
Bishop. From that time she has not
been seen, and only few Of her rel
atives were conversant concerning her
whereabouts. Mrs. Bishop states that
she went from here to Minneapolis,
and has been there working in cafe.
Because Mrs. Bishop left so uncer-
enormously, and also because Norman
IbyBMyI, WIN WIS oyCA w AAesA
Tomlinson, left LaMoille the same day,
neighborhood gossip was pife, and the
general superstition was that the cou-
pie had gone together.
Not True, Says Mrs. Bishop.
To the T.-R. Mrs. Bishop said We'd
nesday afternoon: II want the public
to know that I did not run away with
Norman Rygmyr, us the people In our
netghborhood generally believe, and
that I have never seen him from the
time we got Off the same train here on
May II. Neither have l ever heard
from him, nor do know where he Is.
I do not blame the people for think
Ing because we both happened to leave
at the same time, that we might have
gone together, but now that l am
here to deny it. want my statement
made public"
Will Not Return Home.
Mrs. Bishop was asked whether or
not she expected to return to her
home and children, and replied that
she did not expect to ever live with
her husband again. While she did not
care to discuss her home life for pub
location, she said that her domestic
affairs had not been running smoothly
for some time, and that she had given
Mr.. Bishop fair warning. Il avn go
ing to make an effort to get the Gus
tody of my youngest child, Irene, now
II months old. I want her, but Mr..
Bishop may have the other"
Mrs. Bishop stated that she realizes
she made a mistake in leaving her
babies. Because of this she knows that
she has been considered an inhuman
mother. She says she loves her chill
.dren, but that she thought they would
be better off at home.
Mrs. Bishop consulted a lawyer
Wednesday afternoon relative to steps
for divorce and securing custody of
her child
