Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 129, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 June 1915 — Nagged Him by Gaslight [ARTICLE]

Nagged Him by Gaslight

Without uttering a single word during the entire proceedings, Carl F. Scheel and his wife, Minnie, told Judge Fritz today the story of their matrimonial infelicity. An interpreter in sign language transmitted the woman's explanation that she desired a dissolution of the marriage bond because her husband is jealous. Scheel declared his wife was constantly nagging him. “Nagging?" exclaimed the court • “Yes,” the interpreter replied. “He says she gets up in the middle of the night and lights the gas so she can nag him. He says he has to put his hands to his eyes when she begins to nag, and this makes her angry.”—Milwaukee Dispatch to Philadelphia Beo ord.
