She has three children, all of whom she deserted. August 15, 1889 Athens Messenger Athens Ohio The wife of A. M. Grimes, of Rutland township, who recently skipped out with another man had not since at our latest advises, been heard from. August 29, 1889 Athens Messenger David Foreman and Mrs. A. M. Grimes, of Dexter, who alleged to have eloped some weeks since, have returned home, on separate trains, and declare by all that is good and bad that the public and social talk about them is all a lie, that they didn't go way together and that there has been nothing improper in their personal relations. Unfortunately for the credit of their protestations of innocence, it is shown that they were in Athens over one night, when they put up at Cornell's boarding house, near the depot, and occupied a single room containing but one bed. So it is averred by one E. A. Nelson, of Dexter, who came to Athens and personally investigated the part the alleged elopers played while here.
