his wife six years ago.
The case Is one OF the strangest In
stances OF the sort that has come TO
the notice OF the authorities.
Palmer, former travelling manager
for the Lima Locomotive works, with
big salary. and an acquaintance with
leading business men OF the country,
kissed his wife goodbye. six years
ago, when he left for q trip TO Allan
ia. Ga, where he met Mrs. Buchanan.
the wife OF photographer. She left
her husband TO elope with Palmer. q
well-educated and cultured man.
The next that his legal wife heard
OF Palmer. with whom she had lived
happily for "a years. was when her
husbands nephew, Irving Cowles, OF
Chicago. received telephone mes
sage from Mrs. Cora McKee-Buchanan
that Palmer bad died in Grace hospi-
tai Christmas day, from stomach
trouble.
Mrs. Palmer came here from her
home In South Haven, to claim the
body OF her husband, which she says
she will have disinterred, and win

The two women met In the base

man finding the affinity engaged as
scrub woman. Mrs. Palmer says: Il
had pictured her as some young and
beautiful woman. which might help
TO explain the affair for me. but this
affinity Of my husbands proved the
greatest surprise to me. She is not

obtained the janitors job In the
apartment house.
Clerk De Laurier learned from Grace

cause OF death; the certificate was
signed by hospital physician, and
everything was regular.
