HANDED A "LEMON" To Her Husband After a Honeymoon of 24 Hours---Reconciliation
The course of true love did not run smoothly for one of the Bisbee couples married last week. They were put into double harness Saturday morning at Tombstone and Sunday afternoon the bride had jumped the traces and quit her husband. The groom, soon as the ceremony was over, began a celebration which lasted all day and on Sunday morning to cap the climax it is claimed abused his bride just to show his authority.
The woman was heartbroken, but with the courage of her convictions, she packed her suit case and left the hotel and her husband returning to Bisbee alone.
Last evening, according to the Bisbee Miner, the husband returned to Bisbee sober and heartily ashamed of himself, and the friends of both parties hope that a reconciliation can be effected.
