DIVORCE SUIT BASIS
Major Wlllard F. Daugherty, Third
lattallon, Oregon National Guard
itatloned at Camp Wlthycombe, filed
iult for divorce Tuesday from his
wife, Susan Anna, whom he married
in June 28, 1916.
In bis complaint Major Daugherty

I3tb street, Portland, claims that bis
lfe annoya hlra by her frequent vis
ts at Camp Wlthycombe at times

lie says that in addition to the $100 a
nonth which he gives his wife, she

hen expects htm to pay them.
His wife, he claims, is about 30
years of age and Is well able to sup
ort herself. Hence he feels that no
illmony should be given, In conclud
Ing the appeal for separation the
.ilalntlfr recites the actions of Mrs
Daugherty at the camp and statea that
these visits Impair his efficiency "and
ability as an officer In the armed for-
ces of the United States of America.
Lelah R. Tucker finds one of the
main causes of grievance against her
husband, Phillips H., from whom she
wants a divorce, in the tact that he
sent her to Canby for medical treat
ment and then tailed to correspond
with her or pay any attention to her.
Mrs. Tucker fell over a tub in Oc
tober, 1915 and sprained her wrist so
severely that medical treatment was
necessary. Mr. Tucker neither tele
phoned nor wrote to his wife during
her stay there, which she saya in her
complaint filed, here today, proved,
beyond all question in her mind that
her husband no longer loved her.
Previous to this time he had frequent
ly abused her, she claims. Mrs. Tuck
