"The Kansas City Times" (Missouri) Tuesday, September 26, 1911 WHEN HIS WIFE APPEARED The Police Stopped a Matrimonial Reclamation Scheme That Drew a Crowd. "And now at last I have you" in the most approved and realistic melodramatic style and intense earnestness held the attention of a good sized audience on Grand Avenue near Twelfth Street last night until Harry UNDERWOOD, a patrolman, rang down the curtain by escorting the participants to police headquarters. The plot of the story, as explained to Chief GRIFFIN, was this: Floyd YEAGER, Eighth and Locust streets, and his wife were separated about a year ago. Since then, Mrs. YEAGER has had another beau and Mr. YEAGER has had another sweetheart. The arrangement was satisfactory until about a week ago, when Mrs. YEAGER's beau departed for California. Mrs. YEAGER grew lonesome and longed to be loved, so last night when she saw her husband and his girl come out of a moving picture show, she sought to take possession of him. Her rival attempted to hold him by right of present possession, and Patrolman UNDERWOOD thought Chief GRIFFIN could act as referee better than anyone else. Chief GRIFFIN gave them some advice and warning and they were released. ================================================= (I have no connection with this person but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) =================================================
