WIFE DECLARES
Divorce Case Defendant Says
She Bought Two Hats and
Shoes with Money.
Especial to the Newark star.l

PATTERSON, Jan. 31.-That her nus
band had given her but s1S during the
seven years of their married life, was
the astounding declaration made this
afternoon by Mrs. Hanan Peterson, In
answer to the divorce suit of her hus-
band, George A. Peterson, a wealthy
florist, of Fairlawn. The hearing was
begun this morning before Vice-Chan-
cellor Eugene Stevenson, at the Court
House.
The wife further stated that with the
S13 she purchased a hat for $3.50 and
another for $3.50, and the balance, So,
she expended for two pairs of shoes for
her own personal wear.
Mr.. Peterson, taking the stand, testi-
fed that he married Hannah McFrau-
Ian on September 10, 1901, and that they
lived together until January 10. 1908,
when 1t IL charged the wife left him.
taking their three children.
The husband said that the trouble
started only the day after their mar
riage, because of the peculiar notions
held by my wife as to how a man and
wife should conduct themselves. She
said that If she had known previously
as to the duty expected Of a wife she
would never have contracted mar
riage." Mr.. Peterson said that his wife
finally became reconciled to h new
conditions and the trouble started again
with the birth of their youngest dauSh-
ten when there was a dispute as TO the
RAINING of her.
II wanted to call her Virginia but
my wife insisted on calling her Sallie.
1T was fully three months before we
finally compromised on Virginia"
The husband also charged that the
wife threatened the lives of the chill
dren, and in answer Mrs. Peterson de-
MED the assertion and claimed her
husband was committing perjury. Con
structive desertion is claimed by the
defense. Mrs. Peterson says she was
forced to leave her husband because
of her husbands cruelty. Mrs. Peter
son was still on the stand late this
afternoon.

A member Of the legal firm declared
that Mrs. Arnold had zone abroad

her departure had nothing whatever "a

He disclalmed knowledge as to
whether Mrs. Arnold we're the heavily
yelled woman who was said to have
called with young Arnold upon George

D~orothy's. at Florence, Italy.
The Arnold family believed at first
hat Dorothy had gone abroad, accord
ing to a statement attributed to Mr..
Armstrong, of the legal firm, but later
became convinced that she had not
left the country.
THAT Miss Arnold did not go away
with a nan Is settled beyond u doubt, -
Mr.. Armstrong declared.
I'VE know positively hat she did not
leave with a man of her acquaintance
for we have beer in communication
with all of her men friends, of whom
there were not many. There is the
theory that she may have met a man
on h street, but the investigation into
the character of the young woman
shows that for her to go away with o
strange man was impossible. Other
girls from well-to-do families have run
away with the coachman, to be sure.
