right next door to them. She was therefore home alone a lot but often came to our house to complain and we in turn did our best to calm her down. Also almost every time I ended up having to bring her back home as well as having to procure everything she needed on a daily basis. This went on for eight months until she moved back in with us. 

When they got married he was in possession of a 40 acre farm but when they got divorced he no longer had the farm. So what ever little in possessions she had when she went in was exactly what she had with her when she left again. We gave her a cow and then immediately turned around an bought it from her again for $35.00. I then borrowed $75.00 from Stefen C. Petersen based on liquidating her belongings because she needed to sell most of her things to put some money in her pocket. This is also how Petersen ended up getting his money back. She was faced with having to find a job again and for some time she was in Oconto, Crystal Falls and Green Bay. For a couple of years she was also a member of the Salvation Army. During her time there she became friendly with another member, a George L. Rockwell, and they eventually got married. However, they needed to leave the Salvation Army, because the organization's religious roots forebad a divorcee to remarry.

Before she got married to Rockwell she was legally divorced from her first husband. It so happened that three years after that they had gotten separated and while she had kept to herself that there was a widow whom Peter Nielsen had gotten acquainted with who was eager to get remarried. So he approached Hanne and asked if she might be interested in divorcing him to which she of course said yes. Peter even offered to pay for any and all expenses connected to the process. A few days later he returned and asked if she wouldn't please be the one to file for the divorce because he simply couldn't to which she agreed as well. At the time she was unaware that he had another woman lined up, otherwise she probably wouldn't have said yes, let alone offered to help him with the proceedings. yet she did, and a few days after that he remarried. Not long after that she got married to Rockwell. Even though I believe that they had a decent life together we were still the ones that ended up having to feed and clothe them afterwards. I also ended up driving several loads of firewood down to them while they lived in Green Bay. He worked in Enock's broom factory and even though he made a few dollars a day it simply never seemed like it was enough.
