| 11739 | Wife Cruel, He Alleges Dr. Humphrey, Of Frederick, Brings Suit For Divorce. Says She Tried To Stab Him He Also Asks Custody Of Child – Couple Are Prominent Socially In West Virginia. Frederick, Md., Sept. 1. – Dr. Frank M. Humphrey filed a bill in court this afternoon for a divorce from his wife, Lillian Rosabel Talbott Humphrey, and asked for the custody of their 27-month-old child. They were married in Washington in July, 1911, by the Rev. Mr. Alfriend, rector of the Charlestown, (W.Va.) Episcopal Church. Since their marriage they have lived on the bride’s estate near Hansonville, one of the handsomest farms in this county, where he started to raise coach and hackney horses. Mrs. Humphrey was formerly Miss Lillian Rosabel Talbott, daughter of the late Harry Talbott, of Charlestown, W.Va. She inherited an estate from her grandfather, the late Lycurgus Hedges, of which she came into possession when 21 years old. Some months after their marriage they come to this county and located on the bride’s estate, which was greatly improved. Later discovery was made that they were in financial straits. It is said that Miss Talbott indorsed notes for her grandmother, Mrs. Henry Talbott, before her marriage to Dr. Humphrey, and both were thrown into bankruptcy. After a meeting of creditors of Charlestown and this city a settlement was made, leaving Mrs. Humphrey with noting but a life estate in the farm. Child Taken By Husband. Mrs. Humphrey went to Charlestown Saturday to visit Mrs. William H. Neill. Learning that she had left their infant child at the home of a relative in this city, Dr. Humphrey, accompanied by his brother, William Humphrey, came from Charlestown in an automobile and took the child to the home of his parents. Mrs. Humphrey was notified that the child had been taken and the following day wen to the Humphrey home with Attorney Frank Bushong, where a stormy scene ensued. Finally Doctor and Mrs. Humphrey, with the child, returned home. The divorce proceedings caused a sensation here, where the couple are prominently related. Dr. Humphrey charges that since they were married she has treated him with great harshness and brutality, reminding him that he was a pensioner upon her bounty and that the food he put in his mouth came from her family. He also alleges that on July 27 she attempted to stab him with a knife and that the person who interfered was cut. He also asserts that she told a certain person that she would kill her husband if she were sure she would not be found out; that he has been compelled to prepare his own meals, make his bed and mend his clothes, and that she has neglected her child. Wife Gives Her Sie. At the home of Mrs. Lloyd T. MacGill Mrs. Humphrey denied tonight every charge. She said she had been considering divorce proceedings on account of his cruel treatment. “Today,” said Mrs. Humphrey, “I had to call in a physician to prescribe for me because of treatment I received at the hands of William Humphrey, father of my husband, when I went after my child. When he saw me at his house he swore at me and grabbed me by the shoulders and said: ‘You huzzy, what are you doing here:’ He then hurled me to the floor in sight of my husband. A few minutes later he and his son, William Humphrey, forced me upstairs and locked me in a room and again threw me to the floor. They threatened to keep me there until I assigned to them the life estate in my farm. I finally ran out of the house and got away.” The Baltimore Sun. 2 September 1914. | Talbott, Lillian Rosabelle (I5673)
