Sensational reports have been cir culated touching the probable sepa ration from his wife of Mr. W. G. Brokaw, owner of the valuable game preserve at Fail view, in this county.

In a recent in teiview, Mr. Blair, father of Mrs. Brokaw, who is at Fairview, says there is no inclination ou the part of Mr. and Mrs. Brokaw to separate, and that he is at Fairview awaiting their arrival in a few days to affect a reconciliation between them. He says bis daughter is fond of society and Mr. Brokaw is jealously devoted to her hence they have been hav ing domestic troubles. From another source comes the report to The Courier that a few days ago Mr. Brokaw desired to go to Palm Beach, Fla., to attend the automobile races where he is involv ed in a wager of $20,000. He did not want his wise to go and left her at Fairview. She immediately' started walking to High Point. Her father overtook her and carried hei back to the lodge. Later Mrs. Bro kaw secured a carriage and, driving to High Point, left for Palm Beach, where she joined her husband. Both will return to Fairview next week.
