FIANCEE SUES MRS. IDA FUNK
Well Known Abilene Persons In
volved In Litigation

An unusual case came before the
probate court when Mrs. Verna Kug-
Ter presented a claim against the
estate of James Thompson, deceas-
ed, for the sum Of $3.50 for nurs-
ing and care during an illness of
nine weeks.
Thompson died at a Salina hos
pital February 6, after a long ILL
ness caused by an liberated tooth.
He was show man and run a con-
cession at carnivals. Mrs. Kugler,
who has been with a show or car
nival company practically all her
life, and was a bright attractive
girl, ran the concession for Thomp-
son. She received salary of SIS a
week and SIS a week was sent to
her mother for the care of her
child by divorced husband. The
friendship between Mrs. Kugler and
Thompson was intimate and the
two had planned to be married when
Thompson became i'll. Mrs. Kugier
gave up her work and cared for the
sick man during nine weeks.
When Thompson died he left
small estate of several hundred dol
lars and it was found that his moth
er, Mrs. Ida Funk of Salina was his
only heir. The mother protests the
