Leslie Shigley and children are planning to leave in a few days for the state of Washington. Some time ago Mrs. Shigley suddenly departed, taking two children with her and leaving Leslie and four children behind. Laiter she undertook to place her little girl, about 8 years old, in a Home over in Illinois and the authorities wrote over to Mr. Shigley and he went after the girl and brought her home. The little boy' is still with the mother. Neighbors have only the kindest things to say about Mr. Shigley but the mother comes in for considerable criticism, especially since she deserted her family. It was at the Shigley home where the man from U P north was paying a visit one night several weeks ago when the husband returned home. The man beat a hasty retreat but Shigley caught him and gave him a severe thrashing. While the man was never fully identified, Mrs. Eva Greenlee Myers alleged in her recent trial for divorce that her husband was the man. .
