SERIOUS CRIME CHARGED
OLD DICKINSON ENGINEER

Many of our readers of early days will
remember Mr.. and Mrs. j. w. McQuay
who resided in Dickinson and Mandan
for some years. Mr.. McQuay was round
house foreman for the N. P. at this
place for some years prior to the COM
ing of D. S. Littlehales. Later he re.
sumed his position as passenger enei.
neer and resided at Mandan for several
years. Subsequently Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
Quay moved to Winnebago. MINI.
where they had a farm, and now comes
news from Aberdeen. S. D., which will
be a surprise to those knowing these
people in pioneer days on the Yellow.
stone division of the Northern Pacific.
The Aberdeen dispatch of January
10th. says:
1.-Two McQuay fsmilies here. those Of
an uncle and a nephew are involved ir
an interesting series of civil lawsuits
and one criminal action. The persons

McQuay Electric Co Mrs. o. L. McQuay,
aged 80. has 50. 500 of her own money
invested in the company.
About a year ago Mrs. o. L.. McQuay
separated from her husband and lef'
town. Last week she returned, and the
litigation began, Mrs. Mcluay being
plaintiff or complaining witness ir
most of the cases.
The first case instituted was the ar.
rest of j. W. McQuay, who is so years
old. on a charge of adultery. He was
taken before Judge George W. Crane Of
the municipal court and released under
bonds to appear for a hearing on JAN
uary 20.
Mrs. McQuay. his niece at marriage,
alleged that in the fall of 1910 she wat
anxious to recover the amount she hac
invested in the McQuay Electric Co..
but claims that her husbands uncle
came to her and made improper suggest

she did not get her money back unless
she yielded. Finally. she claims. she
submitted to his desires, partly in order
to recover her money. and partly be-
she believed her husband to b,
untrue to her. The illicit relations be
tween herself and the elder McQuay,
she claims. we're continued for a periot
of about four months, beginning il
September, 1910, when she left her hus
band and the city, not returning unit
last week.
Upon her return she swore out tn,
