He Asked Her to Marry
Him Last May
TSpecial Dispatch 10 The Call

lOpecf0i DfSpdrch 10 ne Idul
SAN JOSE, Sept 20.-The fact that he
had long passed the age limit of useful
ness set by, Or. Osler did not deter Rev.
Henry True Kesse of this city from i'm
partially distributing his affections on
the fair ones of his acquaintance is to
be gathered from the wording of
complaint filed this afternoon in the
superior court of this county.
Rev. Mr.. Besse in spite of his SS
years is in the front rank as wooer.
Only last Saturday night he took as
partner of his joys and sorrows Mrs.
Mary Ann Spivey. Today he was made
defendant in a suit for damages in the
sum of $4,000 for breach of promise.
The plaintiff is Mrs. Cynthia M.
Thompson. a local artist and relict OF
the late John D. Thompson of San Jose.
She has a studio in this city at 532 East
ST. James street and her work is known
in exclusive art circles throughout the
state.
The complaint sets forth that on or
about May "a last, in consideration of
ilCi piOAiltSC " Tic d6Ud ihAiA'S
ter, the defendant agreed to marry her
within a reasonable time. She declares
that confiding in this promise, she has
ever since been ready and willing to
marry the defendant. Rev. Mr. Besse's
marriage Saturday and the announce
ment of it in the papers so overcame
her and caused her so much mental
anguish and sorrow that Mrs. Thompson
believes she is entitled to remuneration
in the sum of $4,000
Mrs. Thompson is active in the civic,
social and religious organizations of the
city.
DR.. Besse is a retired minister of the
Methodist church and is believed to be
more than Independently wealthy. For
his new bride Of 55 whom he took iif a.
ceremony performed Saturday night by
Rev. w. c. Simpson of the local Free
Methodist church he built a handsome
new home in Naglee park, San Jose's
exclusive residence district. He has
written many books on religious sub
jects and is numbered among the pio-
neers of Santa Clara county.
On the cornice of his former home in
South Tenth street DR.. Besse for years
displayed a fresco bearing the words,
III. T. Besse, a Cottage on Earth, a
Mansion in Heaven"

cate Theo Willis, a woman of the
night life. figures as an affinity in the
allegations of the complaint, which is
grounded mainly on charges of cruelty.
Judge Mogan issued an injunction
tying up Alisky's deposits with the
Wells Fargo Nevada National bank

Ever since the marriage, celebrated
on October IA, 1907, of the former
actress to the theatrical manager. with

her associations with the footlights as
a dancing and singing partner OF the
present Mrs. Mabelle Corey, it has been
understood by mutual friends of the

has pursued a regular course of cruel
ties toward his wife during the last
two years. 1t is said he told her on
care for her or have any affection for
her" and that "he hoped he would never

The upper peninsula is about as sol

His principal address was an appeal

Taft listened, however. to an old
fashioned republican campaign speech
from Representative Young. who made
a few pointed remarks about different
brands of progressiveness
Senator Townsend, who has accom-

tered Michigan, denounced Taft's
critics as belonging generally to class
of selfish politicians"
Introducing Taft to an immense
throng in a three ring circus tent
brought from Chicago for the occasion,
Young referred to Taft as having taken
office at a time when constructive work
was needed. and not a tearing down.
