While trying to build out the tree of Dr Alexander Wood, the inventor of the hypodermic needle, i came across a scandal (nothing to do with Dr Wood) that has me hooked, but i don't have access to the full newspaper articles.
The scorned wife was a medical doctor, and she filed suit against the other woman for $50,000 for alienation of affections, and the other woman's son caught his mother and the doc's husband in a hotel together and caused a scene which his mother thought was life-threatening so called the cops on her son. This wasn't the other woman's first scandal in the newspapers.
I wonder what happened in the end? Of course i do know that the errant husband ended up with a different woman, Rose Rebecca Massey, after his wife died, because it was Rose i was researching and her second marriage that i can't find registered. Maybe it wasn't registered!
