Hunting For Her Lost Husband

HUNTING FOR HER LOST HUSBAND

An Ann Arbor Woman Found Insane on the Streets of Jackson.

SAID SHE WAS LOOKING FOR HER LOVER

She Was Mrs. Jennie Ward of Detroit st. This City.

Separated from Her Husband Eight Years Ago--She Has Worked at the Hay-Todd Company and Also at Housework and Was Thirty-Five Years of Age.

Early Tuesday morning Patrolman Lewis found a woman of 35, well dressed, on the street, who said she came from Ann Arbor and was looking for her lover. The officer concluded she was crazy and took her to jail. Her name, she said was Jennie Ward, but at one time she was Eliza Halliday, and had lived at Stockbridge.-- Detroit Evening News.

Mrs. Jennie Ward has lived in this city for several years. Her present residence is at 503 Detroit st. She is about 35 years of age and does all sorts of house work for a living.

It is now nearly eight years that she has been seperated from her husband, but not divorced. For sometime past she has acted strangely and the neighbors occupying the same house have several times commented upon it to others but the case did not seem so serious until Saturday when she insisted on taking her neighbors two children up town as she felt lonely.

Later she started for Ypsilanti and, although she did not say so, it was hinted that the purpose of this journey was to find her husband, and it was also understood that from there she would go to Pontiac. However, from the above dispatch it is quite possible that she left Ypsilanti for Jackson in quest of her husband.

There seems little doubt now but that she is demented. Recently she has been working at the Hay & Todd factory and drew $2 Saturday. She claimed that she did not have enough to eat, but when Officer Isbell entered her home after she was reported missing, he found a lot of meat, bread and other eatables and the furniture was all turned up-side down.
