Roena Baldwin Pigg's love for her soldier husband, James Pigg, is not what it once was, and today she filed suit against Pigg in the Campbell Circuit Court for divorce, alleging abandonment. She says she met Pigg while he was stationed at Ft Thomas. Their first meeting ripened into love, and they were wedded June 18, 1904.

He shortly abandoned her and the last place she heard from him was at Skagaway, Alaska, where he was stationed with the Third Infantry, Company A. Mrs. Pigg, besides praying for a divorce, asks for restoration of her maiden name, Roena Baldwin. Attorney J W Heuver, for plaintiff, was named as the warning order attorney to defend the nonresident defendant by Circuit Clark Schwartz.
