After two years of complaints and
cross complaints and four trials of
the case, one of which resulted In a
decision favorable to the husband, which decision was afterward revoked, a divorce has been granted
Walter E. Pettey, the wealthy young
Muncie man, from Mrs. Maud Petty
in Denver, Colorado. The case was hard-fought, and the scene of it was in two states. It is estimated that Petty paid out at least $10,000 and perhaps as much as $13,000 in his efforts
to free himself. Petty was granted
the decree on the ground of desertion. The wife's demand for $10,000 alimony was taken under consideration. Petty, in a dying condition from tuberculosis, went to Denver and while there sent for his young wife and daughter to come to him. They started and while on the way the child, nine years old, fell ill of appendicitis and died after an operation In Denver. With the body, Mrs. Petty came back to Muncie, the husband
being too ill to accompany her. Soon afterwards the husband asked for a divorce, alleging abandonment. Mrs. Petty filed a counter complaint, charg
ing cruel tretnienL The Colorado
Jury, which tried the case, disagreed.
The Greenfield Suit. Mrs. Petty, then in Greenfield, filed suit for divorevtut the Judge there decided that she was a resident of Colorado and that his cour had no jurisdiction. In the meantime, Petty had filed another suit in Denver and his wife failing1 to appear either by person or attorney, a decree was
gnwrted the husband. A few days later, however, the ejudge set aside the j decree on the ground that the wife had not been notified of the date of the j trial. , Petty several months ago filed suit j once more and this time has been
successful, but the chief point, that of alimony, has not yet been determined. In one of his complaints, Petty averred that his wife tickled his feet with a feather when, he was confined to bed by illness. He also said that she returned to Muncie with the body of
their daughter without his beiing informed of her intentions. Mrs. 'Petty set forth, among other things, that her young husband was a drunkard. The two ran away to Newport. Ky.. and were married in spite of parental objections, when they were only seventeen years old. They are about twenty-eight years old now. Petty'a health has Improved considerably. Mrs. Petty is living near New Castle with her parents, George Miller and wife.
