of Wholesale Assassination
Used in Courtship.

Hutchinson. Kan.,. March Be
cause she was forced by the threat OF
death to become the wife of a man
twenty years older than she and was
literally dragged to the altar, Mrs.
Jasper Braiser of Plevna had her
marriage annulled today.
b. After hearing the story of the
young wife, Judge c. r. Branine. in
the district court, issued an order set
ting aside the marriage.
Eliza Malcolm, daughter of William
Malcolm, prominent farmer of
Plevna township, was barely IS years
of age, when Jasper Brasier, a farm
hand, aged 3S years. asked her to wed
him. She refused, for she had given
her heart to Houston Walker, an
other young man OF the neighbor-
hood.
Braiser used rather strenuous
methods in urging his suit, however,
and finally threatened her that unless
she would wed him he would kill her,
and her lover, Houston Walker. and
Harvey.
The young girl, frightened by his
repeated threats of wholesale assassin
alton. and perhaps more anxious for
her lover and brothers than for her
self in her wretched condition. finally
consented.
The husbands love for his young
wife seemed to die as quickly as It
was born, and Notwithstanding the
desperation with which he forced her
to wed him, it was not long before he
her. The young wife is
now with her parents and with her
little babe. The husband has done
nothing toward supporting her.
