Barred Soul
To Save Man
She Adored

Detroit, Mich. Dec. 26. = To
save the man she loves from pris-
on, Mrs. Lillian Scheckles, pretty
nurse, barred her soul before Judge
Keidan, furnishing a dramatic eli
max to a hearing intended to
prove the good reputation of her
husband, Charles R. Guider. al
legged bigamist.
Before a gathering of relatives
and friends that included Guider's
well to do parents and the mayor
of Bluffton, Ohio, near Lima, his
home town, Mrs. Scheckles sud
denly announced she had some
thing to say and then tearfully
admitted she committed bigamy
when she married the prisoner.
Il married Guider when al
ready had a husband and three
children" she said. Il left them
in Maryland because he was cruel
to me. / met Guider when I was
down and out. He saved me from
becoming woman of the streets,
1 loved him, and he loved me. l
couldn't get divorce because of
my religion, and l told him so.
But he was a man, and we loved.
So we married."
Augusta Trevor, nineteen,
whom Guider married last week,
only to lose her husband to the
custody of the police two days lat
er, took the news calmly.
Guider was released, the prose-
cutor deciding there was no case
against him inasmuch as his mar
riage to Mrs. Scheckles was lille
gal. And then, all doubt as to the
legality of their wedding cere-
mony having been cleared up,
Guider and Augusta Trevor walk
ed out of the court room arm in
arm.
