INDICTMENT AGAINS
GILKYSOrJ
MARRIAGE LIFE TANGLED
Ionian Who Posed as Wife of For
mer Naval Officers Shjs, "I'm
Off Him for I.ifc."
Indictment against Ki chard !.
Gilkyson and lo!s M. Imlah, known
recently as Iois M. Gilkyson, for de
fraud ing Miss Genevieve Taylor, a
nurse, were dismissed yesterday at tlie
request of the complaining: witness,
when G. TV. Gilkyson. financal manager
of the Pacific States Telephone &
Telegraph company in San Francisco
and father of the young man, arranged
for the payment, of 1141.40 to Miss
Taylor, in restitution.
Common law marriage ties, which
held th-e young and good-looking
woman who posed as Mrs. Gilkyson,
were severed beyond repair by the de
velopments of the past week, during
which time t?he spent several days in
th-e county jail while her supposed hus
band was in custody in San. Krancisco.
"I'm off him for life," was the terse
announcement she made to .Deputy
District Attorney Pierce when he told
her she was free and asked if she was
going back to Gilkyson.
Marriage Relations Tana-led- .
Matrimonial relations were very
much tangled in the Gilkyson case for
it appears that both parties had been
married before they met and both had
children. The young woman, whose
parents are supposed to be wealthy
ranchers of Tillamook county, has a
child of four years and declares her
husband is dead. She said that Gilky
son had an interlocutory decree of
ij ivorce from a wife in San Francisco
and that they had been awaiting the
expiration of the time limit.
V. J. Phillips of the Portland Bell
telephone system, who was asked by
Gilkyson Sr. to look after affairs here
for him, declared to Deputy Pierce that
he had never heard of any trouble be
tween young Gilkyson and his wife, to
say nothing of a divorce. They had
one child.
Statement la Reversed.
When first questioned by Deputy
Sheriff Christofferson after her arrest,
the young woman in the case said that
she had been married to Gilkyson in
Vancouver, Wash., in April. When the
deputy reached for a telephone to cor
roborate the assertion, she interrupted
to say that she meant they had tried
to get married but could not because
of her would-be husband's interlocu
tory decree. She said stve had been a
moving-picture actress in the Mack
Sennett studio in Los Angeles and that
Gilkyson had been an officer in naval
aviation. She went under the name of
".Lois Date" in the movies, she said.
Genevieve E. Taylor, the nurse who
caused the arrest of the Gilkysons, had
attended the supposed wife during two
weeks of illness and had cashed a
check of Gilkyson for ?75 which was
found to be valueless. Gilkyson took
$t0 with which to go to San Francisco
and left $15 with his "wife." Mean
while he had borrowed ?25 from Miss
Taylor, left her to pay a $14.40 hos
pital bill, and owed her $30 for two
weeks of nursing, making a total of
$14 1.40.
The young woman who posed as
Gil ky son's wife now declares that
Gilkyson deceived her, 'that he bor
rowed much money from her without
repaying it, and that she will prosecute
him if restitution is not made.
MEMORIAL FDR STOCKMEN
W. S. I.ADD S AND 'MIKE' WIS
DOM'S WORK REMEMBERED,
Livestock Pioneers to Be Honored by
Engraved Plates in Stock Show
Home's Walls.
Two memorial plates, one commemo
rating the pioneer work and achieve
ments of William S. Ladd, who was
among the first importers of pure-bred
livestock in the state, and the other in
memory and recognition of M. D.
1 "Mike") Wisdom, for many years
identified with tle livestock industry
of Oregon, will be imbedded in the
stonework at the en trace of the new
stockshow building now being built at
North Portland by the Pacific-International
livestock exposition.
"Oregon is just now beginning to
ivap the great benefits of the splendid
pioneer work done by these two men,"
said Chairman Frank Robertson of the
building committee yesterday, "and
the livestock enthusiasts of the pres
ent day are eager to give every recog
nition possible to the foundation work
which they did. With the completion
ot' the Pacific-International stock show-
home, a new and widespread impetus
will be given to the development of the
great livestock industry in the north
west. The foundation for the great
industry now so splendidly expanding
was laid by our pioneer livestock men,
among whom William S. I-add and M.
D. Wisdom were most prominent."
Mr. Ilobertson said that the huge
building, covering z acres, is now
more than 50 per cent complete, and
that construction in ail the numerous
units of the big stock show home is
now far in advance of the schedule. It
will be completed by November 1
gi-ving a leeway of more than two
weeks for detail equipment before the
Pacific-International s annual show
opening on November 17.
Many of Portland's livestock enthu
Biasts will go to Salem today to at
tend a luncheon of breeders, stock
men, bankers, business men and civic
club leaders at the Hotel Marion, at
1:30. Vice-President K. G. Crawford of
the United States National bank will be
one of the speak-ers and Frank Brown
of Carlton, president of the Pacific
International, will also address the
meeting.
