THE POOR WOMAN
SAYS SHE WAS JILTED.
A School Teacher Sues a Prominent
Marion County Merchant.
Miss Martha Wilson, a well-known
school teacher of theStayton neighbor
hood, near Salem, has begun an action
against David B. Smith, to recover
$6750 damages for breach of promiao.
He is a prominent merchant at Stay ton
and popular in social circles. Miss
Wilson ulleges that in Deccmher, 1901,
she and Smith made mutual agree
ments to marry each other, the con
summation of the contract to take
place in the Summer or early Fall of
1902.
According to the complaint
Smith did not wait for the time to ex
pire, but notilied her early last month
that he wonld not now or at any time
become her husband. Miss Wilson al
leges that she can oarn $50 per month
at school teaching; but because of
Smith's engagement to marry her she
made no contract to teach during the
coming school year, and it isbow too
late for her to secure a position. The
unfiuthfulneiw of her alleged lover has
eau#d her groat mental anguish, re
sulting in illness which required the at
tendant» of a physician. Miss Smith
demands $4000 general damages, $2000
punitive damages, and $750 for loss of
wages, medical attendance, etc.
