J. C. Henderson's Death.
J. C. Henderson, one of the
most highly respected farmers
and stock raisers of the county,
died at his home about three
miles east of Teague last F/iday
morning of pneumonia: He had
been to a girst mill nearby the-
.Saturday before and returned
home too sick to put his horse in
the barn, He went to bed and
gradually went down hill until
his death.
Interment was made in Driver
cemetery Saturday afternoon at
3:00 o’clock. Rev. E. H. Tirey
held the religious services and
delivered a very beautiful funer-
al sermon. Following this Fair-
field Masonic Lodge took charge
of the' services and conducted
the usual beautiful services of
the order.
Deceased is survived by his
wife and three children, Mrs. W.
H. Hogg of Waco, and Clint and
Virgil Henderson of near Teague.
In testimony of the high regard
in which Mr. Henderson was
held by Freestone county people,
his funeral brought the largest
attendance to the cemetery that
had been there on such an oc-
casion in some time.
Mr. Henderson was always
progressive and led in every
good movement for the benefit
of the ‘farmers of Freestone
county, and certainly his ser-
vices will be missed by his fel-
lowmen.

in a suit numbered on the docket
of said court N6. 5621, wherein Mrs.
Lillian Abernathy is plaintiff, and
Turner Abernathy is defendant,
and said petition alleging—Plain-
tiff represents to the-Court and
would allege and show the follow-
ing: That Bhe is and has been for
a period of more than twelve-
months prior to exhibiting the pe-
tition herein, an actual bona fide
inhabitant of the State of Texas.
ancLhas resided in said county of
Freestone for at .least six months
next preceding the filing of this
suit. That on or abput the 24tb
day of December, A. D. 1914, in.
Lauderdale county, State of Ala-
bama, plaintiff was lawfully mar-
ried to defendant then a single
man by the name of Turner Aber-
nathy; that they continued to live
together as husband and wife until *
on about the 4th day of July A. D.
1915, when by reason of the im-
proper conduct on the part of the
defendant toward plaintiff she was
compelled to permanantly abandon
him, since which time they have
not lived togetner as husband and
wife.
Plaintiff alleges that during the
time she and defendant lived to-
gether as aforesaid she was kinS
and affectionate to her said hus-
band and was always mindful of
her duties, and did all that was in
her power to make their living to- .
gether supportable, and that plain-
tiff was not unmindful of any of her
duties and marital vows and obli-
gations, but that on the contrary
the defendant was not mindful of
any of his marital vows, obligations
and duties, but that in total disre-
gard for this plaintiff’s rights and
happiness, the defendant, within a
Very short space of time after their
marriage as aforesaid, began a
course of adulterous relations with-
other women, and that the defend-
ant did on various dates and at.
divers times bring prostitutes and
women of ill fame to the home
of this plaintiff and that the defend-
ant did on numerous occasions
bring men and women of ill fame-
to the home of this plaintiff, and
there and upon those occasions
would have adulterous relations
with said women of ill fame, and
the defendant did on many occa-
sions visit houseB of prostitution
and ill fame and there live in odiil-
try with said women of iH fame.
That the defendant did live in
adultry with a woman other than
his wife, by the name of Ella Jolly
and that the defendant on several,
occasions did brihg women and men
into the home of this plaintiff, and
that the defendant and said women
and men would on those occasions, \
drink spirituous liquors and be-,
come intoxicated before this plaint-
iff’p two little girls, and on differ-
ent occasions, these different occas-
ions would break up in a drunker
fight, and the officers did on some
of said occasions, arrest said mer,
and wonjen and the defendant;
that said marriage relations be-
tween plaintiff and defendant still
exist.
Plaintiff alleges that defendant’s
actions and conduct toward her
generally are and were of such a
nature as to render their further
living together as husband and wife
insupportable, the premises con-
sidered. ‘ ' "■ ; ‘
Wherefore plaintiff prays the
court that the defendant be cited
in terms as the law requires, to ap-
pear and answer herein and that
