- An Old Man's Jealousy
When Richard K. Crane married his wife Clara Belle it was another case of an old man's darlinmg. He was past the meridian of life, while she had just witnessed the sunrise of womanhood. He was over 50 years old and she about 22. They were married in 1877 [sic]. He was intensly jealous of her, as is the case in so many marriages, and without cause, too. He would get angry if she spoke to any man, and would scold and abiuse her for it. Finally his jealousy culminated in physical abuse. In 1888 he beat her and knocked her down with a chair.
Then she left him, and they have not lived together since. He did not provide foir her as he ought to have done. She sued for divorce. He did not answer the petition. Judge Maxwell heard the case yesterday morning [ 20 Feb 1891] and granted a decree. E. J. Franks was her attorney.
