from The Republican (Danville, Indiana)—issue of Thursday, June 15, 1916—page 8, column 3:
WANTS DIVORCE
Francis W. Cox makes many allegations against his wife, Julia E. Cox, in his complaint for divorce. When they were married he had three minor children by a former marriage. He charges that Mrs. Cox falsely accused him of infidelity; that she cursed him; that she drove his daughter away from home; that she refuses to prepare meals for the family and locks up the clothing so the children have to wear soiled clothing; that she has a passion for disturbing the peace and quietude of the home. He wants a divorce and the custody of their son, aged one year. They were married May 3, 1913 and separated June 12, 1916.
