Trouble between the young couple
started about a month after their mar
riage. according to the complaint of
the wife. Every Sunday from then
on. Wilson, his wife says, would COM
mence to annoy her, nagging and pes
tering her so that it was almost I'M
possible for her to endure it. On one
occasion on a bitter cold winter day
he locked her out and refused to let
her in; on another occasion, she
charges, he struck her until her face
became discolored.
After violent quarrel which took
place April II the young wife was
obliged to leave the home at GA New

lived in the upper fiat of the same
house on Newell street, and was re-
sponsible for the attitude which the
Young husband took towards his wife,
according to hef allegation. A child
il expected to be born of the union
some time in the near future, and for

about one month after said mar

cruel and inhuman treatment of the

Informed and believes, by the influ-
ence exerted over him by his mother,
who lives in the same house with the
parties.
"That on the Sunday prior to
Thanksgiving, 1928, the defendant be-
Gan an argument with the plaintiff,
Fostering and annoying her to such
an extent by his tormenting treatment
that she could hardly live in the same
house with him. That again on the
Sunday prior to Christmas, the de-
PENDANT and plaintiff got into vio-
lent argument and he by force and
violence, locked her out of their home
and kept her out for more than two
hours in the inclement weather.
THAT on Christmas day, 1928, the
said defendant by force and violence,
committed an assault upon the plain
tiff, by then and there striking her,
beating and bruising her until both
sides of her face became discolored
and remained in that condition for a
period of more than two weeks.
s'That on the Saturday following
New Years when the weather was ex-
ceedingly cold and the thermometer
below zero, she defendant ordered the
plaintiff out of the house and locked
her out and refused to let her return
until she secured assistance from his
father, who compelled the defendant
to open the door and let her in.
"That beginning about four weeks
after their marriage the defendant on
every Sunday would start an argument
and so poster and annoy the plain
tiff that it was almost impossible for
the defendant to endure his conduct.
That he insisted upon living in the
same house with his mother in the
upper fiat of said house. That the
mother of this defendant is a very
disagreeable woman and has always
treated this plaintiff in a cruel and
inhuman manner, and has influenced
the defendant to so treat the plaintiff
That plaintiff has requested and en-
treated defendant to move away from
the influence of his mother and he has
refused to do so, saying he will stick
by his mother and if she does not like
it she can get out.
