Pesterak, & ~passerby, grabbed at his
heels. Pesterak was thrown into
the gutter.
The cries of the burned man
brought Welsh to the scene. Welsh,
who is an experienced wire man,
grasped the opportunity in a mo-
ment's thought. He caught up a
fence rail and pried the wire from
the mans fingers. 10th was carried
into a nearby house and every eff
fort made TO relieve his ~sufferings.
DR.. Spencer was called and is now In
attendance. He states that the a

2 FAMILIES DISRUPTED

Metuchen, N. J., Feb. 23.-Mrs. John
NJ. Conner, wife of a wealthy retired
hat manufacturer, that her
son, Francis Henry Conner, twenty
years old, had married In San Fran
cisco Mrs. Mary Morton Pickslay Up
john, who last Monday obtained a de-
cree of divorce at Reno, New. The
bride is about fifteen years older than
her youthful husband.
The marriage Ia a final chapter In a
romance which began a year and q
half ago, shortly after the separation
between Mrs. Upiohn and her husband,
Dudley A. UpJohn, had taken place by
mutual consent. The UpJohns came to
Metuchen about ten years ago and had
always been prominent In local So
ciety. Both husband and wife were
members OF the vested choir OF st.
Luke's Episcopal church, to which
young Conner also belonged. About
the time of the separation of the Up
johns, eighteen months ago, Mrs. Up
john inherited the sum Of $250,0O0
upon the death OF her father. She pur-
chased a large estate Immediately ad-
Joining that owned by the family of
young Conner, and In a short time the
friendship of the pair started gossip,
On the evening of June 8, 1911, the
father OF young Conner, who objected
to the visits between his ON and Mrs.
Upjohn, ordered the latter out of his
house. AS a result there was q bitter
quarrel between father and son, which
resulted in the arrest OF the latter on
the charge Of having struck his father
over the temple with a revolver. Young
Conner was held In $4,000 bail for the
grand jury on his fathers complaint
md on the following day caused the
latter to be arrested on d counter
charge and placed under bonds to keep
the peace.
The episode led to a breach between
the elder Conner and his wife. who up
proved OF her sons friendship for Mrs.
Tp5ohr. After the episode MT. Conner
left his home and has since lived at
the home OF the rector OF st. Luke'r
church.
About six months ago Mrs. Upjohn
went to Nevada to acquire a legal res
idence for the purpose Of bringing di
vorce proceedings against her husband
In that state. She obtained her decree
last Monday. Six weeks ago young Con
nor left home, and his whereabouts
were unknown until his mother re
ceived a telegram announcing his mar
riage. Mrs Conner Immediately wired
congratulations. Efforts will be made
by friends to heal the breach between
Mrs. Conner and her husband.
