Transcription:
In District Court of Antelope County Nebr., Petition

Annis H Sholes, Plaintiff vs. Charles E Sholes, Deft.

The plaintiff complains of the defendant for that on the 9th day of October 1889 in Antelope County, Nebraska, she was married to the defendant, and has since resided herein, and has ever since said marriage conducted herself toward the defendant as a faithful, chaste, and obedient wife.

2nd The defendant, disregarding his duties as a husband, on the 9th day of October 1889 willfully deserted the plaintiff, and for more than five  two years lost past has been willfully absent from her without a reasonable or just cause. (Note: Updated 11/6/24 after consulting with Sandy Dempsey and looking more closely at the handwriting. The word is very likely "two".)

3rd The following children are the issues of said marriage to wit, Florence Octavia Sholes, aged 6 years.

4th The plaintiff further represents that said defendant is a man of vicious and vulgar habits, and is wholly unfit to be entrusted with the care, custody and education of children.

The plaintiff therefore prays that she may be divorced from said defendant and that she may be given the custody of said child and that said defendant be decreed to pay her reasonable alimony, and for such other relief as equity may require.

State of Nebraska, Antelope County:

I, Annis H. Sholes, plaintiff in the above entitled action, do solemnly swear that I believe the facts stated in the foregoing conclusion to be true.

Subscribed in my presence and sworn to before me this 5th day of June, 1896. E O Kilvairnis. Notary Public.
