SEPARATION IS
NOW CONFIRMED
Another Polo Romance Has
Been Shattered.
CUSICKS WERE HERE
Wife Refused to Discuss Affairs, But
Husband Admits Truth of
Recent Report.
The recently circulated report that a separation had occurred between Mr. and Mrs. David Cusick, formerly of this city, but more recently of Kokomo, has been verified by Mr. Cusick, who stopped in Muncie a short time last night while enroute from Kokomo to the East.
Mrs. Cusick and her mother, Mrs. Anna Hemingray, were also in Muncie yesterday, having left their temporary home in Kokomo soon after Mr. Cusick arrived in that city Monday night from Fall River, Mass., where he has been spending the summer.
Mrs. Cusick firmly declined to discuss her domestic affairs, but Mr. Cusick, in an interview, said that he and his wife had peaceably agreed to separate, and that he would not place any obstacle in the way of her suit for divorce, which, if filed, will probably be filed at Kokomo, where Mrs. Cusick and her mother have been living quietly for some time.
The wedding of "Davy" Cusick, widely known as a polo player, and Miss Sue Hemingray, well known in Muncie society, which took place in Indianapolis after the two had made a hasty flight from Muncie a year ago last December, created much gossip at the time, and was supposed by friends of both to be a love match pure and simple. Although the bride’s mother bitterly opposed the alliance, she later became reconciled and visited her daughter and son-in-law during their residence in Kokomo, where Cusick was playing polo.
Mr. and Mrs. Cusick, it is said, have been living apart for several months, the former having been in the east.
