Content-Disposition: Inline Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit Columbus Dispatch Thurs. April 15, 1897 Living Apart Anna BEHMANN has sued George BEHMANN for alimony. She says they were married in this city February 19, 1890, and have no children. She says that for three years she has been in ill health and unable to work, although she has done her household duty. She complains that during this time BEHMANN has been addicted to the use of liquor and while under the influence of drink would abuse her and threatened to leave her. At different times prior to 1895 he did leave her and would be absent two three days without cause. She claims he did this to torment and humiliate her. In June, 1895, he abandoned her and remained away for about three weeks. Although she had been ill treated prior to this she induced him to return to her. In October, 1896, he again left her and has been absent ever since. She says he left her in ill health, unable to maintain herself and in destitute circumstances. Mrs. BEHMANN says she is living with her brother and sister, who support her. She says BEHMANN is employed at a North High street hardware store and receives $65 per month. They have no property except household goods, which have been paid for since they were married. Mrs. BEHMANN claims she assisted in paying for the furniture, and to prevent her husband from carrying out his threat to take the goods from her she secured a temporary injunction from Judge BIGGOR. She asks for reasonable alimony. James A. ALLEN filed the suit.
