Alienation suit in jury's hands in Topeka
The 825 00 alienation of affections case brought by WB Francis against William Damm and heirs went to the jury shortly after 11. The plaintiff contends Damm, especially William J Damm, alienated her affections from her husband. The couple married in 1898 in Potawatomi County and lived there before moving to Topeka area. They had several children, oldest 22. Defense argued Francis left her husband due to alleged extreme cruelty. Five children testified the father insulted her and forced her to leave. Francis said abuse broke her health and left her with no work for the Damms in Topeka. She left in November to stay with the Damms’ son and his wife. She testified she went to Topeka to seek a divorce and visited nearby farms to see friends and the son who worked there. The case continued with witnesses and testimonies.
