Initials “J. L. L. ” were on a coat.
The body was identified by Mrs.
Link as that of her husband.
The body was buried in the Link
family lot. Insurance money, $2,000
\;i> collected from tin* Minneapolis
Yoemens Lodge.
Then came the war, and the un
married members of the Link family
eft to stand by the colors. In the
mantime Mrs. Walters had died,
pd Mr. Walters asked Mrs. Link to
give up her life of drudgery and be
come his wife.
The life of the old people was
i happy one. Two years passed, and
hen *’Knot*h Arden” came hack.
When Mr. Link left Minneapolis
nine years ago he first went on
Milwaukee, then to Brookhead, Wis.,
then to the Klondike. And in the
nine years he made his fortune. He
loos not show his sixty-two years.
But he became lonely, and finally
» he decided to return to his wife and
children.
When he got there, well—
"I am happy, for the sake of the
children, that he is alive and well,"
his wify, Walter's wife, said. "But l
will stick to my second husband."
There i.> no ill feeling between the
two men. Mr. lank agrees that Mr.
Walters is a fine man and that Mrs.
Link couldn't have married a better
• >ne.
But the law— that peculiar creation
•»■ humanity—must have its say. Wril
liam M. Nash, county attorney, dc* J
•dared *t was his opinion that Mr*.
Walters is not Mrs. Walters , but
Mr*. Link. The marriage between
Mr**. I rink and Mr. Walters was il
ogal because no divorce had been
minted from her first marriage, h«*
say's.
Bat Mr. Link is broad minded re
*3 ding man-made laws— he’s going

i> life inu little shack on the bank
