Leaving without means a wife not

dren, Herman Brunswick. member OF
the habeTdasheTy firm of Brunswick
& Sawyer, proprietors of The Hub,
120 Main street, has been missing
since July 26th, on which date his
wife, now dependent upon friends, al
legeS that he decamped with a large
sum Of money and in the company Oh
another woman, says a special from
Jacksonville.
Mr. and Mrs. Max NyeTson, 903
Laura street, are caring for Mrs.
Brunswick and her children until she
RECEIVERS from her illness and can Sc
cure funds to join her people in
Rhode Island. An intelligent woman,
she talks freely of her husbands dis
appearance, and charges that his en-
tangIement with a woman with whom
he rOomed prior to his wife's arrival
here is directly responsible for his
fight.
She declares that although his ac
count with the firm had been over
drawn, none of the expenses ,Of the
family incurred since their arrival IN
Jacksonville have been paid. The
list of creditors included even the
nurses in attendance on his wife and
the hospital bill for his little son.
Description of Brunswick.
When Brunswick left here he was
wearing a moustsche, which may have
been shaver off, the removal effecting
surprising change in his appear
ance. He is about AZ years of age,
but readily passes for 35. He is Tath-
IN, 4a4, drnCcnS Uoffi-
| ly. He has a broom shaped scar,
white in appearance, on his left CheeS,
extending into the neck. Several up
per front teeth are missing, and in
his lower front jaw he wears a bridge
particularly noticeable when he talks,
because OF the gold backing extending
over the edge of the teeth. When ex-
cited he witches his head around
similar to person annoyed by a tight
collar. The forefnger Of his right
hand has a black finger nail. He may
be travelling alone, or in company
with a woman, a siCk-lOOking boy OF
about II years, and an older boy, Jew
ish in appearance, with a coarse
voice.
Brunswick had been employed as
superintendent of other large stores
in Jacksonville before going into the
nrm OF Brunswick & Sawyer, only a
few weeks ago. and is familiar with
the clothing business He may seek
employment as salesman or may look
for work as a writer of advertise
ments. being a specialist in that line
This information was given by the de-
serted wife, who hopes he may be ap-
pretended.
only Recently Remarked
The action of the man is a particu-
Iarlv distressing blow for the wife, to
whom he had but recently been re-
married. Mrs. Brunswick had con-
scented to the marriage, believing
THAT he had eliminated the habits
which had caused a former separation
and the granting of a divorce in the
city of Providence, r. l., where they
had lived for some ten years
The divorce was granted September
81, 1908. In Rhode Island before
final decree is filed six months must
eIapse In this case that time had
not elapsed, but the wife being in pos
session of communications from
Brunswick that led her to believe
that his habits were not as they once
were, granted his plea to return to
him. and by that act cut herself off
from all her friends and relatives IN
New England. Her lawyer filed a dis
continuance instead of a final de-
cree, and assured her that everything
was as if she had never started pro-
ceedings.
Allowed Deception,
Nevertheless she was remarked to
Brunswick by the rabbi OF the Re
formed Congregation in this city on
April %, 1909, purely as matter OF
sentiment She permitted herself to
be represented by Mr. Brunswick IS
the widow o. a deceased brother, up
on his contention that it would be
detrimental to his business standing
to be known as divorced man, re-
married to a fOTgiving wife
When she at first rebelled at this
deception. he left to her TO decide
whether she would pose as the out
ragged but forgiving wife, and Kill his
prospects, which we're hers too, or
Weld to a harmless falsehOod.
Women's minds seldom rule their
hearts. and Mrs. Brunswick confesseS
that she was no exception
The authorities have been asked TO
aid in the search for Brunswick and
those who have heard the story of the
deserted wife hope that he will be
soon located and at least compelled
to contribute to the support OF his
family
Aubrey Sawyer. the other member
of the firm of Sawyer & Brunswick,
is continuing the business, known as
