MARRIAGE FOLLOWS QUICKLY
ON HEELS OF A DIVORCE.
Savannah, June It.—Mrs. Lau
ra Averitt who was divorced from
her husband Henry G. Averitt
here on Monday afternoon lost no
time in getting another husband.
Advices received from Philadel

Igreed and mistrial was declared,
The next day the case was heard
again and she was granted the
( lirst verdict. On Monday she ap
peared in court to ask for her sec
ond verdict and decree. It was
j granted after a short, considera
tion by the jury. She at once
went to the telegraph office and
wired Capt. Adams,“l am coming
wait for me.” The Captain, who
had been trading at Savannah
for several years where he unit
his vessels are both well-known,
had hirt ship all loaded at Phila
delphia and ready to sail for
Porto Rico, but he waited when
lie got the telegram. Mrs. Averitt
readied Philadelphia yesterday
afternoon and this morning the
knot was tied. She wired friends
in Savannah of the marriage they
have been sending their congratu
i lations.
After Mr. Averitt deserted his
wife the Captain begun to pay
| her at tention and friendship soon
ripened into something more tan
gible. He proposed that a divorce
; be secured and tiiat. they he mar
ried. Mrs. Averitt was willing
and sh'-lost no time in getting
! the pap'-rs prepared for filing in
i.ho court house. She went from
■the court house to the telegraph
i office alter hay ing secured her sec
ond verdict and decree and went,
; ij'nni the telegraph office to her
I home where sh<* packed her grips
I and left for Philadelphia on the
! first train.
THIRTY-THREE YEARS
UNDER AN ASSUMED NAME,
’
Statesboro, Ga., June 14.
“Well, 1 have fooled you all for
t wenty years,” said R. H. Soar
boro, known in Bulloch county as
It. Baker for that period of time,
“and now 1 will introduce you
to my son, Mr. Scarboro.” This is
wlmt “Baker” told Will Akins,
an old friend, as he was about to
board a Central train at Jnnps.
Akins hud know n Scarboro as Bak
er for a score of years and was
greatly surprised to learn that lus
true name was Scarboro. Scar
i boro left his home in Btshnpvtlle,
S. C., thirty-three years ago,
spending thirteen years within IOC)
miles of his home without the
knowledge of his family. Leav
ing that place, he came to Bul
loch county. This was twenty
! years ago. He left home w hen
tlu* son that came after him was
II years old. Believing him to lie
dead, it is said his estate was ad
ministered upon. This son, how
ever, thinking perhaps his father
might still be living continued to
make inquiries about bis father,
and recently when an old ac
quaintance of the family came to
.Statesboro be saw Mr. “Baker”
on the streets and recognized him.
The acquaintance was a traveling
man, and it seems that lie made
it a point to go thru IJishopville
and fell the sou that lie hud seen
ii is fat lu*r.
