Divorces In State Increasing

Matrimonial discord has grown to
such proportions in Ohio that the
number of divorce suits filed last
year is equal to one-third the num-
ber of marriage licenses issued. Sec
retary of State Clarence j. Brown
revealed this in a preliminary re-
port on social statistics of 1929, re-
ported by court officials in every
county in the state. During the
year, there were 62,787 marriage
licenses issued in the state, and 22,-
213 divorce suits filed, Mr.. Brown
said. Number of marriages reach
ed peak in 1921, when there We're
1925 licenses issued, falling to
53,606 in 1922, and remaining be
low 10000 until 1929. Divorce rec
ords showed that about tWo-thirdS
Of the divorces asked were granted,
Mr.. Brown said "The most ac-
curate appraisal of the situation over
a period of years may be obtained
by comparison OF marriages and
divorces" Mr. Brown said. in
1865, there We're S37 divorces IN
the state, and 22,19S marriages. or
one divorce for every 26 marriages
In 1929. there were 1899 divorces
and 62,787 marriages. or one di-
vorce for every AZ marriages. An
even clearer Interpretation of the
growth Of divorce may be seen from,
the fact that while in 1865 only 81
percent of the marriages ended in
divorce, in 1929. 23S percent of the
marriages resulted in divorce"
In three counties, more petitions
for divorce were dismissed than
were granted. In Lawrence county,
240 divorce suits We're dismissed
and 84 were granted; Scioto coun-
ty. 280 dismissed and 1856 granted,
and Vinton county, seven dismissed
and five granted. In six counties
more than 1000 divorce suits We're
filed in the year covered by the re-
port. They are: Cuyahoga county.
5,152; Franklin county, 1908; Lu-
Gus county, $50; Summit county,
.659. Hamilton county. $50, and
Montgomery county, 1878.
Monroe and Noble counties tied
tor the fewest number of divorce
suits filed, eight divorce suits being
filed in each county. The report
verifies the popular notion that

Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1930-02-15

Luther Dunkin was not aware OF
her method of earning livelihood,
and he did not visit her with any
intention save that of having his
future foretold. However, the Wo-
man had considerable to say about
this. so when she saw him, and
noticed his cold indifference to her
charms, she began to practice her
most cunning wileS to enSnare MN.
She determined then that she would
bring him on his knees in admira-
ton of her.
OF course when she sidetracked
from the principal issue in their
conversation, Luther listened to her
somewhat reluctantly. He did not
visit her to win any of her engag-
ing smiles, and he didn't care how
soon she discovered this. He was
already married, and one, woman
was enough for him: moreover he
believed that this was exclusively
his concern - without regard to the
pretty alluring witch.
After his arrival, the witch ten
dered him a couple of drinks. She
led him to believe that she possess
ed the choicest of wet goods and
that they weren't for sale. They
were for her clients who had to in
terest her Intensely before she took
them in on her private stuff.
The young man was not ignorant
of the fact that along the river
front almost anything can happen.
Therefore he was prepared for the
worst. He did not lack sufficient
courage to face the facts without
lamentation, and in the event of a
showdown where his fighting quail
tiles hung in the balance, he most

assuredly would have given a good
account of himself.
The river front is a bad place,
with not infrequently killing, and
quite often a suicide. Near the
bridge, many people have grown
tired of living and flung themselves
into the cold waters OF the Misslss-
ippi. Numerous human bodies have
been found there, and the verdict
has most commonly been, suicide.
However, some few people living in
the vicinity of the bridge appear to
believe otherwise. They hesitate to
publish their opinions on account
of lack of evidence to prove their
contentious.
The Devils Head was a small
place which colored men frequent
ed on late Saturday nights.
Perhaps Luther did not know that
the surest way to. a good looking
Womans heart is to play coldly in
different to her innumerable
charms. Unquestionably. if he had
known that he would have been
more warmly responsive. To be sure,
he had all that to learn. and his ex-
perience was rather steep in the
way of price.
The witch convinced Luther
without argument that he would
have to see her again, and when he
took his departure on that first ev-
ening, he had learned enough to
arouse his curiosity. The woman
had told him more than any other
fortune teller, and he believed her.
More than that he felt that he be
lieved in the power of the. witch.
She knew things. In fact she
knew enough to hang many people.
