STAPLES WAS NOT SUCH
A BAD FELLOW AFTER ALL

In the case of Georgiana Staples
against Grin r. Staples, one of the
regular ones that put Reno on the
nap, Judge Walsh mas denied a
decree of divorce to the plaintiff
on the grounds that the defendant
was not guilty of failure to provide,
cruelty or drunkenness, giving him
a clean bill of health on the three
points on which the suit was
brought. The couple were married
March IS, 1915 in Los Angeles
after an acquaintance Of one week.
Evidence taken in the case is to the
effect that for eight months before
coming to Goldfield, Staples never
drank and that he started when he
came here. You can't get to know
a woman in a week and you never
really get dry until you get on
the desert.
