Mate in Arms of An
other Man.
Chicago. Oct. 30. Henry Kerr,
cashier of the Jefferis State bank,
was granted a divorce fromhis wife,
Mabel, after he had described on
the witness stand how a search for
his wife on a stormy night had re
sulted in absolute proof of her un
faithfulness. '
The search was pn the shore of
in inland lake at St. Brieux, Saskat
chewan. Kerr told the judge his
vife belonged to a prominent Ca
ladian family and for their sake, as
A'ell as her own, he did all he could
to protect her against' the social
:onsequence of her conduct. He was
married February 5, 19QS. and served
with the Canadian army during the
Eurooean war. He returned in
t March. 1919, and found his wife it)
company with Charles Anger. v
Leaving home a few days later,
Kerr said he found the house desert-
ed when he returned. His boat was
also missing. The night was very
stormy and he and his wife's brother
became alarmed for the safety of
Anger and Mrs. Kerr, whom they
surmised were out on the lake in the
little boat. The brother patrolled
one side of the lake and Kerr took
the other. He had traversed about
a mile when he came upon his wife
and Anger, in each other's arms.
He produced letters from his wife
admitting her guilt and insisting
that she thought more of "Charley"
than she did of him. Kerr there
upon came to the United States. The
court granted him a divorce.
