DISMISSED THE CASE
Rather Unexpected Ending of Mrs. Dreisbach's Divorce Suit
The following from the St. Louis Post Dispatch of the 16th inst. will be of interest to many of our readers:
Mrs. Anna T. Dreisbach's divorce suit against her husband was dismissed by plaintiff in Judge Klein's court this morning and an alias summons was served on the defendant to appear in court on the first Monday of the June term to answer to a suit in equity for authority on the part of the plaintiff to sell the property she inherited from her father without the consent of her husband. In her petition the husband is charged with cruelty to her and their three children, and in fact all the charges are made that were cited in her petition for divorce. If the defendant refuses to answer the summons, the court will probably sustain him, as Judge Klein decided in another case only a few days ago that a summons or subpoena cannot be served on the non-resident during his attendance in court, or during a visit he has made to the city as a party to a suit.
HER CASE WAS WEAK
The suit for divorce was dismissed on account of the weakness of the case for the plaintiff. While she alleged indignities, cruelty, failure to support, etc., very little evidence was offered in support of the charges.
The defense expected to show that Mrs. Dreisbach had no good cause for leaving her husband, but only wanted to get rid of him and enjoy her large inheritance from her father alone. Her father, who was a banker and merchant at Carthage, died in 1887 and left an estate valued at $150,000, and Mrs. Dreisbach's share was four farms and town property at Carthage valued in the aggregate at $36,000.
Mrs. Dreisbach claims that her father was to give her 160 acres of land upon her marriage to Dreisbach, but that on account of a dispute she had with her sister she refused to accept the gift and that her husband was so disappointed that he abused her for not taking the property and that he has been abusing her ever since, twenty years, in consequence.
Mrs. Dreisbach is now living with her three children, two boys and a girl, on Olive street and Grand Avenue, and rents out furnished rooms.
Mr. Dreisbach, who is a plain country merchant and miner, says that he cares nothing for his wife's property and that she can live in St. Louis if she desire to but that in justice to the children he will ask that the management of her property, in which he has a marital interest, be taken from her and assumed by the court of by some one appointed by the court in order that the property may not be frittered away. He wants his children, he says to receive a good education, and the income from the property can be made sufficient if properly managed to give the children all a good school and support them and their mother as well.
