PLEADS HUSBAND
CONDONED lARKS
Mrs. Emma Marie Summerhayes
Denies Charges, but Offers
Agreement to Forgive

OAKLAND, July 13.-Mrs. Emma
lies upon an agreement signed by her
husband William Ruggles Summer
hayes, to prevent the sitting of charges
of misconduct which Summerhayes had
plant for divorce. which laid bare de-
tails of escapades in which he said his
wife figured during a series of night
automobile parties.
Mrs. Summerhayes filed her answer
to the cross complaint today. AL
though she said there was not word
OF truth in them she added that, If the
charges were true, her husbands agree
ment to condone her acts had wiped
them all out and that. therefore, they
never had any existence for court pur-
poses.
Summerhayes charged that in July
and August of last year, his pretty
partner was member of gay crowds
that reveled in the night life at vari
Gus roadside resorts between Oak
land and San Jose and that f. II. Kuef-
fer was constantly at her side. Sum-
merhayes complained that on many
such occasions she failed to return 10
their home for the night, and that as
pect of the affair he regarded as ex-
tremely serious.
In September she sued for divorce.
alleging cruelty, but shortly afterward
the suit was dismissed. They had
signed an agreement of mutual for
giveness and everything went well I'M
til February of this year when she
said that he administered a scandalous
beating. Then she recommended her
action and Summerhayes exposed the
long list of grievances of the summer
before.
Mrs. Summerhayes sought today to
convince the court that the agreement
had wiped the slate clean and that the
only blur on the record was made by
Summerhayes.
Suits for divorce for desertion were
filed by Frank Lind against Marion E.
Lind and by Ida A. Whaley against
William II. WhaIey.

white shirt front to the fore
According to reports the fair diet

pseudo masculinity in San Pablo ave

small boys. The youngsters spotted
her for a masQuerader almost imme-

bers. followed IN her wake down San

SO boisterous were the comments
which they hurled at the now embar-
raised woman that the grownups in
the neighborhood became interested
and the police were notified The
woman, however, hastily decamped.
