SEEKS $4,000 FROM WIDOW
ST. Louis Man Sues Rich Kansas City
Woman Who. He Says. Proposed

St Louis, Mo-F1fty thousand dol

possession Of at least one Sc. Louiszn.
because a rich Kansas City widow

without the slightest pruvocaEion on
bis part. and neither married him nor
supported him
This is the substance Of a petition
filed at Kansas City By Martin Kapp
against Minnie Bickling Of 2712 Brook
Ign avenue, that city. In the petition
Knapp admits he was to have had GER
tain obligation under the marriage
proposal which Mrs. Blckfng made
him. In the first place he was to wed
her. and IN the second place he was to
spend much Of his time studythg mu-
sic. 50 be might enrich her life with
melody while she puzzled over the
business OF the partnership.
According to Knapp. Mrs. Biekfng
dsd not fall TO impress upon him her
ability to provide the necessaries Of
life. One lot on Main street. Kansas
lily Which A2 8&JA size 4E48 &A&A& A4&
~ before his eyes. was worth 1 $4,000.
Mrs. Bickfng apparently had nothing
20 stand between her and Kapp. There
were no children. In addition she had
81 love OF music. which KapD could
satisfy.
Kapp. although forty-hve years old.
had never married. and he saw no rea-
son why he could not become the hus-
band ST the s500.000. He and the
woman. he Fecites, were friends and
aRectionate companions In their youth.
After Mrs. Bickfng became a widow,
Knapp asserts. they met IN Colorado
and their acquaintance was renewed.
This was in October. 1903.
The meeting was followed by an IN
vitatfon for Knapp to visit the widows
home ia Kansas City. and It was while
on such q visit her offer OF marriage
was made. Knapp asserts. The petition
mentions a letter said Z have been
written by Mrs. Bicking in which Knapp
is referred to twice az sweet one"
It is all Of this agony piled up which
Knapp thinks worth one-tenth Of Mrs.
Bickingss alleged fortune.
