MRS. BUDLONG OFF FOR
NEW YORK JOIN HUBBY
NEW YORK, Mar. 14.—The where
abouts of Mrs. Jessie Margaret Bud
long was uncertain today, although
indications were that she had gone
to New Port, R. I., her husband’s
home.
Her husband’s chauffeur declared
he had driven her to the station to
take a train last night for Newport,
where she had said she would go to
establish her residence with her hus
| band.
All of the furniture in her hus
band’s apartment having been re
moved by his order, Mrs. Budlong
capitulated after defying the siege
of all his lawyers, detectives and
servants for more than a week.
She came out of the apartment
house unexpectedly, her head held
high, and her face betraying no
sign of the six days she had spent
without food. Wrapped in an old
coat, she hurried into the waiting
limousine, which sped away and soon
lost itself in the traffic.
Earlier in the day she had an
nounced her intention of joining her
husband, Milton J. Budlong, in New
Port, where he had advised her he
had established a residence. Mrs.
Budlong, who was denied separation
at Newport on February 10, had
fortified herself in the Budlong
apartment here to forestall any at
tempt of her husband to obtain a
divorce on the grounds of desertion.
