Wife Makes Mistake
Assaults Innocent Woman In Company With Her Husband
Jacob Shively was arraigned in Justice Guthrie’s court yesterday to answer to the charge of provoke preferred by Mrs. Josie Pierce.

Just then Mrs. Shively appeared upon the scene and catching Mrs. Pierce by the neck struck her. Matters were finally settled in court, Shively pleading guilty and staying a fine.
Nannie E. Ishmael Lewis Shively married 3rd in Howard County, IN on 11-Feb-1909 to Edward G. Power. The following articles concerning the marriage and divorce of Nannie and Edward G. Power are as follows:
Located in the Kokomo Daily Tribune, Kokomo, Indiana, February 13, 1909, Page 7, Column 2:
Mr. Edward G. Power, seventy-three and Mrs. Nannie Shively, fifty-six, were married Thursday evening, the Rev. C. W. Shoemaker of the Markland avenue M. E. church officiating. The groom was a widower and had his Courtland avenue home all furnished and prepared for the coming of his bridge. The wedding was celebrated in the presence of but a few friends. Friday night the bridal couple were visited by an old fashioned belling party, with hideous musical instruments, gongs and all that makes night hideous. Mr. Power had not purposed recognizing the visitors, or coming out of the house, but finally some of the more ambitious of this tormentors climbed to the roof and capped the chimneys, smoking the couple out, whereupon Mr. Power appeared with a shot gun. There was a scattering among the invaders. Mr. and Mrs. Power are excellent people. The bride was a widow and is a most worthy woman. The groom is a large land owner and a veteran of the civil war.
From the Logansport Times, Logansport, Indiana, February 19, 1909, Page 1, Column 6:
Edward G. Powers Married
Wonders will never cease here in the valley of the Wabash. Here is our old friend Edward G. Powers, formerly of the Young America neighborhood, who has withstood the storms of 73 winters, and he unites himself in marriage with Mrs. Nannie E. Shively, who has bloomed and blossomed through 50 autumns. The groom’s daughter, Ladoska Powers, was many years ago a faithful typesetter in the office of The Logansport Times. Our understanding is that Mr. Powers fell into the trap through and advertisement which he himself inserted. He wanted a wife, and he just said so in so many words, and the thing was no sooner said than done, and our wish if that they may live happy evermore. The bride lived at Kokomo, where they were married.
Unfortunately the marriage of Edward G. Power and Mrs. Nannie E. Shively did not go so well as reported in the Kokomo Daily Tribune, Kokomo, Indiana, March 11, 1909, Page 1, Column 5:
False Teeth Are An Issue
In Divorce Suit of Power Vs. Power
Husband Not Nice
In His Table Manners, Is Complaint Of The Wife — He Humiliated And Disgusted Her, She Says, By His Habits In The Home — She Lived With Him Two Weeks — She Wants $3,000 And Her Former Name
Many a craft on the matrimonial sea hits the rocks within a year from the time it is launched, but nearly all of them manage to keep afloat at least a fortnight. Even as short a voyage as that, however, is the record of the shallop of Edward G. and Nannie Power. They set sail on February 12, last, and went on the rocks on February 26 — two weeks later to a day.
It is not known that the law firm of Overson & Manning were ambitious to offer something distinctly new in the way of “fillin’” for a divorce complaint, but they are entitled to credit for putting forward something of that kind. The things charged in the complaint are not scandalous but they sound shockingly unsanitary.
The plaintiff in the suit is the wife, Nannie Power. She asserts that she began to drink of the cup of disappointment and humiliation almost from the day of her marriage to the defendant. She says he became indifferent to her and entered on a course of conduct toward her that finally made it impossible for her longer to continue in his presence.
The complaint sets out that Power had table manners that were, to say the least, peculiar. It is asserted that he had false teeth and that upon finishing a repast and while the plaintiff was still seated at the table, he would take them out and “lick the teeth and plates”, a performance that filled the plaintiff with humiliation and disgust and made her sick.
It is charged, too, that the defendant was not given to practice of eating from an individual dish. It is asserted that it was his habit to help himself direct from the containing dishes. It is set forth, too, that his manner of partaking of the elements of good cheer were neither deliberate nor gentle, it being asserted that he was known frequently to “grab into a dish with both hands”.
It is further complained that neatness in his habits around the house was not one of the distinguishing traits of the defendant. That is not just the way it is put in the complaint — the “shorter and uglier word” filthy is used there. The plaintiff asserts that all of these disagreeable personal habits were not the only shortcomings of the defendant. It is asserted that he added to them the offense of vulgar language. It is averred that the plaintiff found life with the defendant under such circumstances unbearable. She says she was humiliated by his conduct and rendered ill by it, the impression being left that it was conducive to nausea. She stood it two weeks and then a separation was “the end of the chapter”, that a resumption of the marriage relation is quite out of the question and that a suggestion of reconciliation is not to be considered. In brief, the complaint leaves an impression that the plaintiff has had enough.
In the concluding paragraph of the complaint it is revealed that the plaintiff wants to be paid reasonably well for the two weeks she lived with the defendant. She suggests alimony in the amount of $3,000. It is set out that the defendant has ninety acres of land in Harrison township and that his property holdings are of the value of at least $10,000. It seems that the defendant has become so repugnant to the plaintiff the the latter wants absolutely nothing out of him but a settlement. She does not even want the name he gave her, for she asks the court to restore to her her former name, Nannie Shively. There is also a request that the defendant be required to pay into the court a reasonable sum for the plaintiff’s use pending the final adjudication of the suit for divorce.
Nannie E. Ishmael Lewis Shively Powers married a 4th time to David W. Buskirk in Miami County, IN on 10-Aug-1909.
