LOVE TRIANGLE
NEARING END
Mrs. Hilda Livingstone in
Iowa to Win Back Her
Husbands Love.
WITH WIFE'S SISTER

A tangled love quadrangle reaching
from Kenosha to Denmark and back
again, is about to reach denouement.
Mrs. Hilda Livingstone, neat little
Danish woman, who came to Kenosha
only few months ago only to find
her husband, David Livingstone, in
love with her sister, Mrs. Thyra, Lund,
the divorced wife Of Albert Lund, a
Kenosha carpenter, is now in Daven-
port, Iowa, seekiny to win, back her
husband without using legal means if
this is possible. If this fails, she will
seek her husbands arrest and prob
ably bring him back to Kenosha.
Started in Denmark.
The international love quadrangle
started years ago in Denmark when
the two women were inseparable sis
tiers. Thyra, now 81 years old, came
with her husband to America where
for several years they lived fairly hap
PLY Early in March, 1920, she went
back to the little native village in
Denmark and there she found her be-
loved sister of her youth married to
David Livingstone.
The Livingstones heard of the Won
derful wages made in America and
when the sister7in-law returned to this
country, Livingstone with his eldest
daughter came with her, with the
agreem ent that in a reasonable time
Mrs. Livingstone and the other daugh-

their home. Then there was the long
sea journey together for Mrs. Lund
and Livingstone and after they reached
Kenosha, the latter became a roomer
at the Lund home in this city.
Lund Secures Divorce.
Lund. who is carpenter here, real
lied the GOODNESS which had arisen
between himself and his wife, but be-
cause there had been some domestic
troubles earlier, never suspected that
his brother-in-law had stolen the affec-
lions Of his wife. One night, however,
he came home from lodge meeting
early and found his wife and the
roomer together. Then he started di-
vorce proceedings but in order to keep
the scandal away from the courts he
asked and secured the divorce on a
complaint of cruel and inhuman treat
ment.
Wife Arrives from Denmark.
Then came the wife from Denmark.
firing of waiting for the word from
her husband to come to America she
had come on her own initiative, bring
ing with her the little daughter. Her
husband and her sister met her here
and for a while the husband lived and
supported her in the home in Keno
sha. Each day the sister came to visit
them and forged more closely the
chain of passionate love which she
wound about her sisters husband.
Then one day not long ago. the little
Danish woman found that her sister
had eloped with her husband. A tell
tale marriage license in another state
told Of the illegal marriage.
Traced to Davenport.
Through a friend she traced them
to Davenport, Iowa, and on Monday.
after seeing Attorney Lewis Powell,
where she sobbed out the story of her
abandonment, she left her children
here and went to the Iowa city.
'I will win him back to love me, If
| can" she told her friends, "and if
not, I will have him arrested and
brought back to Kenosha." Attorney
Powell sent letter advising Living
stone that he was guilty of adultery
and that if he, did not return to Keno
sha action would be started against
him. Mrs. Livingstone sold her home
in the old country and has used the
money to bring herself and her daugh-
ter to this country and to support
them since she reached here. She is
now nearly penniless and will be
forced to depend for support either on
her husband if he returns to her or on
friends in Kenosha.
Those Kenoshans who know Of the
tangled domestic affairs of the two
sisters are watching with interest the
result of the journey of Mrs. Living
stone to Davenport. Legal action will
probably take place in the case this
week unless the love-pair make some
satisfactory arrangement with the
little Danish woman who has gone to
claim her husband
