Chambers, The plaintiff maketh oath, complains and alleges: ~First- Thet the plaintiff married the defendant on the 25th day of August, 1903, in Winsor, Bertie County, North Carolina, and Since that time has lived in Statesville, with the defendant until their seperation hereafter alleged; that no children were born by this union, Second- That the defendant, while they livea together as man and wife, by cruel and barbarous treatment endangered her life; and offered such indignities to her person as to render her condition intolerable and life burdensome, without just or reasonable cause; and on or about the 7th day of June ,1914, maliciously turned her out of doors, which will fully appear as hereinafter alleged. ~Third- That on Sunday morning of June 7, 1914, the plain-~ tiff arose and while the defendant continued to slumber in bed, she went to the kitchen, kindlea & fire in the stove and prepared breakfast for the family, and while cooking the meal, she had an occasion to go to the room where the defen-~ dant was in bed, and as she closed the door, she did so harder than she intended, which annoyed and angered the defendant; he immediately got out of the bed in his night clothes ana overtook her in the dining room, with his fist drawn on her and said, "You nasty whoring biteh, if you slam my door like — : t. ‘A Pady ‘staquieyD "SA ‘2 Aonry ‘sioquieyy 6161 thet again I will kill you". ‘She said, "I am no whore and you know it", He said, "What are you doing hanging around here, nobody wants you here, you have done nothing, but whore all around here ever since you have been here”. She said, "That is a lie and you know it - I have been true to you". He continued to curse and abuse her, using other vile epithets, shook and rubed his fist in her face. The plaintiff called for help and the defendant said "Nobody has anything to do with it". That while he was cursing and abusing her, his son Irvin, by his first wife, a minor years of age, slipped up behind and struck her on the back of the head, this angered her and she said, "You hit me and I will scald you". Fred, (the defendant) said, "You are a liar”, and took the boy's part. The defendant told her to leave his house, that no- a body wanted her there. He said if she went for an officer, that he would kill her. That knowing that he had heretofore struck her, threatened and abused her and fearing that he would execute his threat and feeling that her life was in dan- ger, she left his home on said date, to-wit, Jume 7, 1914. That his conduct was without cause or provécation on her part, aS alleged aforesaid, but was the culmination of years of hatred and malice toward the plaintiff. ~Fourth- That soon after their marriage, the defendant manifested dissatisfaction with their union, and often gave expression of anger towards her; that she endeavored to do the honorable part of a wife toward her husband and from her marriage to the time of her separation above set forth, sre cooked, washed, ironed and performed other domestic duties in their home, and provided clothing and food for his children and in all respects was a true and faithful wife. d pel ‘sioquiey5 "SA ‘2 Aon] 6161 ‘sroquiey) -Fifthe That about two years after their marriage, while in their home, she made a friendly remark about one of their neighbors, which she did for his amusement, when he became Suddenly angry and said she "did not do anything but allow negroes to come here and bring you all kind of lies", and got up out of his chair and drew it on her end threatened to kill her; that the remark she made did not reflect on him, and gave him no cause for his words spoken or act performed. That about two years before she was driven from his home, as alleged above, there arose a dispute between them, when he becane angry and mad, and called her a hussey and a strumpet and slaped her violently in the face with his hand; that she bore his insults, endured his cruel and barbarous treatment, and indignities offered her person, as set forth in this paragraph and continued to live with him, performing her usual domestic duties and observing their marital rela- tions, with the hope of reconciliation, which proved futile, and in the meantime his hatred and malice toward her grew stronger, which was manifested by his acts and words, violent epithets and threats to kill her, finally culminating in driv- ing her from his home as alleged aforesaid. -Sixth- That at the time of her marriage she was forty years of age, and was teaching in the colored Episcopal School, St. Austin, at Raleigh, N. C., and receiving a salary of $160.00 a year and all expenses; that prior thereto she lived in the home of Hon. Patrick H. Winston, as a house girl for twenty-five years; that she has always borne a good character and respected by both white and black people: That by the acts and denduct of the defendant, as alleged, she is forced in her 01d age to work for her own lively-hood, as a allies 6161 ‘d Pedy ‘soqurey> ‘SA *D Aon] ‘sioqurey5 domestic servant, without a home or shelter of her own. That She has no means wherewith to sustain herself, except the fruit of her own daily labor, not has she sufficient means whereon to subsist during the prosecution of this suit, and to defray the necessary and proper expenses thereof, -Seventh- That the defendant is the owner of a house and lot on Tradd Street in City of Statesville, worth $1,000.00 or more; that he owns a seven room house near colored Graded School, worth $1,200. or more;that he owns a 3 room house known-as the Mim Chambers house, worth $500.00; he owns a S room house next to Frank Chambers worth $700. or more; he owns the Turner Smith place in Rabbit Town near City of Statesville of the value of $600.00 or more; that he owns other real and personal property in the city, building and loan stock of the probable value of $2,000.00; that his in- come from all his property, and his daily earning will aggregate about $1,000.00 per year. -Eighth- That she is a resident of Statesville, Ne. C. and has resided in North Carolina for more than two years prior to bringing this action, WHEREFORE, she asks for judgment against the de- Wis fendant: For alimony pendente lite, for divorce from bed ani board, and alimony and for such other and further relief as She may be entitled to. pdb Att.

We have your esteemed favor of the 27th relative to the above case and returning the agreement signed by you giving us until the 26th day of March within which to file answer. We duly appreciate your court- esy in this matter, and thank you for the same. From the statements made to us by Mrs. Copeland, we are of the opinion that this is a case that ought not to be tried in court, but that the parties should sign a legal Deed of Separation and Mr. Copeland pro- yide for a reasonable monthly allowance to be paid her. We do not understand exactly from your letter whether this meets with your approval, or whether you are go- ing on with the divorce case. Please let us know, at your earliest convenience, whether the plaintiff in- tends to prosecute his divorce suit. We are of the opinion, from the statements of Mrs. Copeland and another witness, that>the plaintiff was guilty of most reprehensible conduct towards his wife, and that if she separated from him, which she denies, that he was the cause of such separation, and she was justified, from his behavior, in not living with him as wife. We take they are both too old to care about marrying and that therefore there is really no necessity divorce if mutually satisfactory terms of separa- be agreed upon. avor of an y reply, and with kindest tee tele... 4 Be gl a cae : | Plan, Cees.
