W.R.APPERSON FIGURES
IN SECOND DIVORCE JIT
Nephew of Orgeon City Man
Has Turbulent Career In
Last Matrimonial Essay.
Brevity and turbulency were the
chief characteristics of the second
matrimonial venture of Willian Ray
Apperson, nephew of J. T. Apperspn
of Oregon City and who was born
here. Apperson was also a real es
tate dealer in Portland and at one
time exalted ruler of the Portland
Elks lodge, judging from reports re
ceived here yesterday from San Fran
cisco, which told of the successful
termination of a divorce action prose
cuted by Mrs. Jean Davis Apperson,
ex-wife of a wealthy San Francisco
merchant.
In the San Francisco divorce court
Mrs. AppersjJif told Judge Cabaniss
that her husband, to whom she was
married December. 3 last, had posed
as a man of wealth and high social
standing, but she learned later, she
testified, that he was employed in
the menial role ot salad-maker in a
San Francisco restaurant.
Honeymoon Is Expensive
Mrs. Apperson said she spent $3500
on their honeymoon, which brought
them to Portland and other north
west cities. Some of the acts of
cruelty, she told the court, were com
mitted in Portland while they were
honeymooning, while others were
committed after their return to San
Francisco.
After the glamour of the first few
weeks had died away, she said their
married life became turbulent, and
there was a separation nearly every
other day. The final separation, re
sulting in the divorce action, occurred
February 9.
Her matrimonial experience with
Apperson, not only cost her the $3500
expended on he wedding trip, but
25 pounds in weight, Mrs. Apperson
testified.
Apperson is well known in Port
land, being a member of the pioneer
Apperson family living at Parkplace,
near Oregon City. He was for several
years employed as a railroad clerk.
In 1910 he went into the real estate
business, but this venture was a brief
one. '
Many Roles Taken
In 1916 Apperson left Portand for
Spokane, and fromhere went to San
Francisco! While here about- two
months ago on his wedding trip, he
confided to former friends that he had ;
"struck it big" as a timber dealer in
California. His Portland acquaint
ances were astounded when they
learned he had been taking the role of
a creator of salads in a San Francisco
restaurant.
Apperson, while living in Portland,
married a daughter of John Clark,
saddle maker. She divorced him after
several years of marrieTl life.
The latest Mrs. Apperson, in the
San Francisco divorce court, asserted
that her husband had received letters
from other women after her marriage
to him. One of these, she said, was
a nurse, living in Portland, who offer
ed to marry him as soon as he had
been divorced. Another woman liv
ing at Burlingame, Cal., wanted to
buy him an automobile, the wife said.

sured, was proposed on the senate
floor after a series of conferences
