Gould, said to be the. divorced. first hustinld of Carrie, lived here for several months with a woman he had subsequently married. They had with them two children said to be his first wife’s. Gould was interested in some mining process: Of late years local residents have not heard anything of the druggist’s plump and pretty. daughter, excepting occasional rumors which would straggle in to the-effect that she was “flying high.” Yesterday’s San Francisco Examiner however hag, a sensational article concerning her. It says: M.C. Yerby, of Brooklyn, New York, has sent ont a circular letter to the effect that his wife, who was Caroline Rudolph, left their home at 10 St. Andrews’ Place, Brooklyn, taking money, bric a-brac and pictures, and that the woman is wanted for bigamy in Jersey City and for grand larceny in Brooklyn. Tae circular also gives the nam¢s and addresses of three former husbands, and says. the woman is well known in‘San Francisco as a dramatic reader and actress. Mr. Yerby was interviewed at his Brooklyn address by an Examiner correspondent. He refused to give any details of the alleged misdemeanors of Mrs, Yerby, but promised to do some talking later on. Yerby said the first husband, Mr. Gould, with two children, i at 2248 Briggs avenue, Alameda Among other things the description of Mrs, Yerby declares that she is “well educated” and a “rapid walker.” “I was divorced from my wife eight “years ago,” Mr. Gould of Alamed,a said. “Since that time_she—has been inthe East and I have not followed her life there. Six months ago she left her Brooklyn home and came to Alameda to see our two children: I do not know whether or. not.there--is-eny thing in the charges made by Yerby. I understand that Mrs. Yerby is now on her ’ way to Ualifornia.” F.tzsimmons is Free. Pat. Fitzsimmons, who has been serving 55 days in the county jail for contempt of court, was turned loose. today.
