Modern Lady of Lyons Sues for Annulment Over False Age Claim
Mrs Gertle Kendrick filed suit to have her marriage to Josiah Kendrick declared null and void alleging she was induced to marry by his claim of being thirty eight when he was fifty and that he promised a district job and home. They married in January 1902 in Alexandria and returned to Washington where he allegedly had no home or position, leading to her separation. The suit cites Claude Melnotte as a parallel and names Campbell Carrington as her attorney.
