LAYS TUE BLAME ON UIS WIFE
I It Faith AusrU lht, Eh Comps'led
Him to Marry Kn. Welsh.
SAYS SHE THREATENED TO POISON THEM
411 Parties Coaeeraed fllrk to Story
They Did Rot Ktoi Thtr Wera
Violating- Any Law la the
-. Marriage.'
"We were forced Into marrying-, bs we
Were afraid of our lives If we did not,"
was the explanation given by J. M. Faith,
one of the principal! In the peculiar blw
moua marriage in which he and Mrs. May
Welsh, a married woman, went through
the ceremony of being made man and wife,
aa given yesterday afternoon when seen
at the county Jail. Faith, .while protesting
that he did not know he. was committing
an offense when he married the wife of
another man, he at the same time having
another wife, claimed that he went through
the marriage ceremony at the sole Inatlga
tloo of hW lawful wife, who threatened that
unless he made Mrs. Welsh his wife she
would "poison the whole outfit" While
making this charge against his wife. Faith
contends . that his present predicament Is
the result of Interference on the part of
H. F. Btrong, his brother-in-law, In his
domestic affairs. - , .
. Faith, Mrs. Welsh and the tatter's hus
band, James Edward Welsh, a youth of
II years, were arraigned yesterday morning
before Justice Ouren, who had officiated !
at the wedding of the first two only last
Saturday. They declined to make any plea
at this time and requested that they be
permitted to secure the Services of l T.
tJenung, the Glenwood attorney, to defend
them. . Their preliminary . hearing was ac
cordingly oonjinued until Monday and they
were recommitted to the county jail In
default of bonds placed at $500 each. While
before Justice Ouren they refused to make
any statement concerning the case. Later,
however, when seen at the county jail both
Faith and young Welsh were inclined to be
more communicative and told a story which
' Indicates Uat the entire outfit must be
grossly Ignorant or else that the story had
been prepared by them, la explanation of
. their peculiar conduct.
t -
Mr. Faith Tells Another story.
Faith's story- of how be, a married man,
came to marry another woman already
possessed of a husband, differs materially
from that told County Attorney Klllpack
by Mrs. ' Faith. To the county attorney
Mrs. Faith stated she alone of all the par
ties concerned protested against tns mar-
rlsga, but was awed Into subjection. Now
Faith states that It was. his wife who 'sug
gested and Insisted on his marrying Mrs.
Welsh and that she threatened that If he
did not she would poison the whole family.
Faith when questioned at the county Jail
yesterday afternoon made . the following
.itatement:
"All this trouble has been brought about
sometimes goes under ths name of W.jr.
Corrlgan. A month or so ago he came to
visit us from Billings, Mont., where he
claimed to own a large sheep ranch. He
wanted us to sell off everything we owned
hers and go back with him to Montana.
4 . r - . i . ...... .1 . .i w... i
. ii nam uvyvam iu uia u, uui w licit
t thought the matter over I determined to
etay where we were. I did not believe that
Btrong wss quits as well fixed as ha claimed
to be. When I refused to go to Montana
he began to work on my wife and try to
persuade- her to go and Anally succeeded.
At the sams time Btrong represented to my
wife that I thought more of Mrs. Welsh
than I did of her and here the trouble
began. Mrs. Welsh offered to go away,
but my wife' would not allow her, and
told her that If she did she woultl bring
her back again. I offered to let my wife
go to Montana with her brother and that
I would give her a divorce. We went to
see a lawyer about a divorce and he, said
It would take two years to get one. We
understood from the lawyer that If 'we all
agreed to disagree and sign a right-of-way'
no divorce would be necessary so long aa
we went to another county to get married.
When my wife Insisted that I marry Mrs.
Welsh or she would poison all of us 1 de
cided I had best do so. There bad never
been anything In my conduct toward Mrs.
Welsh to make my wife Jealous. Although
wa were married last Saturday Mrs. Welsh
has been my wife In nam only."
The husband of Mrs. Welsh, who appears
to be a mere boy, when asked 1 If he had
been willing to turn over his wife to an
other man said he had not, but was afraid
If he did not .Mrs. Faith would kill them
all.' His story was .substantially the same
as that told by the older man, of whom he
seemed to be In more or less fear, as when
telling his version of the affair he would
from time to time look over at Faith.
When Faith was asked if his eldest
daughter, who Is about 17 years of age, did
not make any protest against him marry
ing Mrs. Welsh, be replied: "She didn't
have nothing to say about It,"
The statements of Faith and Welsh are
discredited by the authorities, County At
torney Klllpack stating he was inclined to
believe what Mrs. Faith had told. -

in. Incipient blase at the city
Blase
There was
hall yesterday, but the services of the fire
department were not needed to extinguish
it. A bucket of water In the hands of Cus
todian Julius Johnson did the work. The
blase originated and was confined to the
cushioned seat of a desk chair occupied by
City Clerk Phillips. The fire Is thought to
have started from the ashes from his pipe.
The only damage was to the seat of the
chair, which was so badly burned as to
need reupholtsertng, and to a certain por
tion of Mr. Phillips' wearing apparel, neces
sitating his going home and donning an
other suit. For a while the blase created
considerable, excitement among officials at
the city hall and Mr.' Phillips narrowly
escaped having the hose turned on him by
City Treasurer True and other volunteer
firemen from the engineer's and auditor's
offices. i I
