mer L. Spear. alleged bigamist, now
employed by the LeMars Printing
Company here.
Spear, it is alleged, is living with
his wife here. It is alleged that
while he was at Garner, he took UNI
to himself wife No. 2.
At Garner he waived preliminary
hearing and his case Will go before
the district court OF Hancock county
in October.
The curious part Of the arrest is
that Spears makes no denial Of his
guilt, saying that he simply acted
foolishly In marrying wife No. 2, who
has left him. Another strange angle
to the triange is that his first wife,
q Belmond woman, is true. to him, and
Is still living with him in Mason City.
Spear Is seemingly repentant for
his hasty action. He states that he
will come out on top and is conf
dent that he will be fully able to set

He has secured bonds of $1,000
