Filed Application to Have His Name Changed.

A rather perculiar application was filed yesterday by a young man living in Kankakee township, through his attorney, Roy Blue. The young man, at present known by the name of Arthur Dean, has asked to have his name changed to that, although his legal name is Arthur Jenkins. When a small child his parents separated. His father’s name was Jenkins but when the couple separated the little boy was sent away to school by his mother and his name was changed to Dean so his father could not find him. Since that time the man has been known as Arthur Dean. The application is filed in his legal name, Arthur Jenkins.
