Meyer to Protect Her Good Name WANTS UNION ANNULLED Nurses Divorced Man at Lick House and Declares He Im- posed- on Her Innocence An unophisticated maiden acting as nurse for a friend, who was the father ' of a family but divorced from his wife, was made the victim of a cruel play | upon honor, according to the complaint filed yesterday In the Superior Court | by Blanche Gore Meyer for an annul- | ment of her marriage with William H. Meyer. Her story is a tale of the wiles of a | conscienceless man. The Lick House was the scene of the affair, although |it is not mentioned in the complaint. | Inquiry made of her attorney, G. Gun- | | zendorfer, discloses that the parties are | not of prominence outside of their own | circles. The lawyer says the girl is all that she represents herself to be in the way of maidenly innocence, and that the man in the case is without prop- | erty, means or employment, and his | reputation is nil. He is said to be a | citizen of New York and to have lived | there on West One Hundred and Twen- | ty-eighth street. | "An inspection of the records of the [ 1ocal courts developed the fact that on April 19 Meyer was divorced by his wife, Grace A. Meyer, and that she ob- tained the custody of their two chil- dren. In her suit for annulment Blanche Gore Meyer tells a story stranger than fiction. She says that on July 9 Meyer was temporarily domiciled at a hotel in San Francisco. He pretended to be ill |and sent for her to come and nurse | him. Believing him to be in need of |her attention, she went to the hotel and remained with him for several hours, doing the good offices seemingly demanded by his condition. Finally, believing that her presence was no | longer needed, she prepared to leave the apartments, but Meyer insisted that she remain with him. Under his compulsion | she did remain throughout the night. DISGRACED HERSELF. ! On the following day the man is said | to have represented to her that as she had spent the night in his apartments she was disgraced in the eyes of the | world, and although nothing improper had happened it would not be believed | that she was innocent. Being only 21 years old and “unused |to the ways of the world,” she says that she believed his statements and was overwhelmed with grief and an- guish. He insisted that she should { marry him to save her reputation. She declares that he made the representa- tions for the purpose of “mortifying her | spirit and shaming her,” and placed her in a false position in order to com- pel her to marry him. He declared she could only remove the stigma by be- | coming his wife, and belleving this she consented. They were united on July | | | actions of her brother-in-law, yester- | day began suit in the Superior Court | to recover from W. C.

Immediately she discovered the falsity and fraud of his conduct, and now, ten days after the ceremony, she seeks a legal separation, averring that| they have never sustained the relation | of husband and wife.

About 150 were present, including ladies in the dining hall, which was very artistically deco- rated with evergreens and festoons, together with English and American flags. The tables were also tastefully decorated with roses, carnations and smilax.

Freese, former Public Admin- istrator, yesterday sued John C. Lynch, Collector of Internal Revenue for this district, for the refund of $686 38 taxes paid under protest for the estate of James W. Singer, who died Septem- ber 19, 1898. The tax was collected under the provisions of the war revenue law of 1898, but Freese al- leges that the distributive portion of the estate was worth less than $10,000 and not subject to the tax. Further- more, the demand for payment by the Revenue Collector was made tributed and after Freese had reti from office. Freese’s demand for remission of the tax was turned down by the Government. four | years after the estate had been dis- the | | of the late J. C. Yoell, will occupy the | attention of the courts for a while. | Yesterday Fred A. Vollmer, through | his attorneys, Bishop, Wheeler & Hoefler, commenced suit asking the | Superior Court to declare that a parti- ton of the property would be prejudi- cial to the owners and to order a sale and the distribution of the proceeds among all who have an interest there- in. Vollmer claims an undivided half | interest in the property and the re- mainder belongs to the dozen or more heirs of Yoell. Vollmer's interest is | subject to a mortgage of $27,500, held by the Hibernia Savings and Loan So- ciety. The other owners and cotenants will have to set forth their interests in court before the sale can be ordered. —————————— Ye Olde English Inn, 144 Mason st.
