Thomasville, Sept. 17—Doe Hall of Thomasville having a wife and children here, and Mrs. Sam Cornshaw of Lexington, having a husband and one child there, were arrested in Roanoke, Va., Tuesday by Thomasville officers while found living in apartments there as man and wife and were brought to Lexington where they were confined in the county jail. A hearing will probably be given them here on Friday. The hearing may take place in Lexington.
Policeman Kay went for the parties on notification by officers there that they were in their hands. Hall had changed his name to Reed and the two were occupying comfortable quarters in a popular residential portion of the city, it is stated, while Hall was working in a furniture shop. The parties left here about three months ago and their whereabouts had been unknown until a few days ago.
It is said that Mrs. Earnhardt is well connected in the way of relationships in Lexington. People here speak of the episode as one of the strangest occurrences that has come to light, and they are unable to explain any part of the affair on either side, more than to say that thoughtless passion must have actuated them in their conduct.
