Mrs. Bertha Shaffer, aged forty-two,
society woman and charity worker,
according to coroner's verdict to-
day.
Mrs. Shaffer was divorced from DR..
Perry Shaffer about five years ago.
Dr. Shaffer married again and lives
in Florida.
For several years the divorced
couple fought for possession of their
child, Nellie, the mother winning out.
Then Albert Bailey became a boarder

Cynthia Ellen Scott Bailey, was a
patient in a Baltimore hospital.
| When Mrs. Bailey left the hospital
she brought suit against Mrs. Shat
fer and her daughter for $25,006
damages, alleging alienation, of her
husbands affections. Worry over
this suit and her own marital unhap-

an to use drugs, which Indirectly
