ORILLHART SAYS
WIFE'S CHARGES
. ARE UNFOUNDED
Socialist Leader, Against
Whom Divorce Was'
Granted Wednesday
Makes Plea.
Jesse T. Brillhart, socialist orator
and candidate for city commission
er a year ago, whose wife was
granted a divorce by Judge Troup,
last Wednesday says reports of
the allegations made by Mrs. Brill
hart in her petition do -him an in
justice. Mrs. Brillhart charged that her
husband failed to support herself
and their two children, that he curs
ed and ordered her and the children
to leave the house. --
He- was given custody of the two
children and the equity in their
home. She has conducted a hair
dressing parlor in the Paxton block
'or several years. v
"I never cursed or abused , my'
wife in all of my married life," said
Mr. Brillhart. "I have always tried
hard to support my family and al
ways turned over to my wife all
money left after paying bills.
"The manager of the Providence
Loan company can vouch for my
borrowing money and giving it to
her to settle her unpaid bills at her
hairdressinr business. I paid off an
equity of 459 on our home in six
months time.
"I advised my lawyer to withdraw
my petition for divorce filed before
she filed her croSs oelition, so that
she could secure the divorce uncon
tested wherein she takes all that we
ever possessed worth taking, be
cause I wish only for her future
happiness and contentment Could
I have done more."
