FINAL CHAPTER OF I- HALDERMAN STORY Judge Teegarden Grants Divorceto Cedar Springs Doctor.
HAD TROUBLES GALORE Mrs. Halderman Left Daughter's Baby on Zimmerman's Porch. (Palladium Special) EATON, O., July 10. The final chapter In the long story of domestic troubles of Dr. Allen T. Halderman and (his wife, Cora, well-known Preble countlana, who dwell at "The Cliffs," near Cedar Springs Health resort, was added Wednesday when Judge W. W. Teegarden, of Greenville, granted a divorce to the husband. In the woman's suit for partition the cross-petition of the doctor was dismissed and their property divided equally between ' them. Judge Teegarden also granted the woman alimony In the sum of $75, "and gave the Preble county juvenile court custody of their minor son. Dr. and Mrs. Halderman have had many troubles and occupied the at(tentlon of the local courts on many occasions. One of their latest came two or three years ago following a Are damage to their home. The woman was accused by the husband of setting i . . . a i i . i i . ore 10 me nouse, ana nis activity reSuited In her Indictment on an arson charge. She was not prosecuted, however, but was confined in the county Jail a short time. Another time Mrs. Halderman had her husband arrested for shooting at her with intent to kill, but he was acquitted for lack of evidence. Baby on Mayor's Steps. Mrs. Halderman came into the spotlight shortly afterward when she attempted to dispose of an Illegitimate child born to her daughter. The girl was living In Cincinnati, and the child was taken from that city to Richmond, Ind., by Mrs. Halderman and placed on the doorstep of Dr. W. W. Zimmerman. At that time Cincinnati police were searching for the mother of a dead babe found in that city, and Mrs. Halderman was suspected, because it was known that a child had been in the home of her daughter, with whom she resided. In order to clear herself of any knowledge of the Cincinnati mystery, she made a clean breast of her efforts to dispose of her daughter's child. WANTED Touring car late model.
