tempted to assault her 13 year old

were married December 30, 1911.

on th'evstand by his son. W‘illiam
Hanna. counsel for the plaintiff.
The custody of a six year old
daughter. Ida was awarded to Ida. B.
Tenney of Tarrytown. N. Y.. in addi—
tion/to a. decree of divorce after she
told Judge Brown that her’ husband
had refused to support her and had
made her work in a. factory to earn

Stratford. was formerly a~ saloon
keeper on Newfleld avenue. this city.
