TWO WEEKS' ACQUAINTANCE BEFORE THEY MARRIED Now Mrs. John W. Kemp Has to Sue for Non-support—Husband Has a Fit During Trial, But Jury Finds for Wife. The second day’s session of the su- verior court was opened in this city Wednesday morning, Judge William F. Bennett, of New Haven, on the bench. The case to come before the court was that of the state vs. John W. Kemp, charged with gon-support of his wife from August 30, 1916, to the present time. The following were se- lected to act on the jury without be- Ing challenged by the counsel for the defense or the state: Edwin B. Latham and Dewey A. Griggs, Windham; Na- poleon Jette, Putnam; Frank W. Mow- rey, Ashford; Clifton J. Church, Chap- Un; Maro Lewis, Bastford; _Joseph Halle, Killingly: William Bellevance, Plainfield: William R. May, Pomfret; A. H. Gallup, Scotland; iam R. Barber, Thompson and Oscar E. John- son, Woodstock. Mrs. Josephina Kemp, the first wit- ness, told of her marriage with Kemp two years and a half ago. They lived together for about three months after which Kemp left for other parts and she went to the home of her brother. The latter brought suit against Kemp some time Jater for her board. Kemp agreed at this time to pay three dol- lars a week to his wife toward her support. He made a few payr -ts but after the last of August, 1916, .ae pay- ments ceased to come. No reason was given her by her husband for not sup- Porting her. On_cross examination, Mrs. Kemp told the court that she had known her busband but two weeks before shc married him. Other witnesses for the state testi- fied to the time of the marriage and ®s to the payments made by the de- fendant. The brother of Mrs. Kemp took the stand and told of the suit he brought against Kemp for the support of Mrs. Kemp, who was at his_house. John Kemp, the first witness for the defense, stated that he was sixty- three vears of age and lumberman by occupation. He stated that he was married but he could not tell his wife's name when asked. His wife wanted to keep house but this the defendant did not want to do, but he finally hired a house in this city, getting home about once a week. He said it was Bfter a_quarrel which she started that his wife left the house on Jackson street. to live at her brother’s home. The man told of his wife holding him by the throat and threatening his life with a knife if he did not give up some money he had at the time. On another occasion his life was saved by his wife after he had jumped into ® pond with the idea of committing suicide. He lived with his wife after the holdup because he was afraid of er. Other witnesses testified to the state of affairs between the two and to thé fact that the defendant was subject to fits, While the lawvers were summing up in the case the defendant was taken out of the court room into a side room where he was revived from one of his fits. The jury found the man guilty of the charge and he was ordered to pa: the sum of $2 weekly to his wife.
