“I wired to Wells,” Wickman said,
“asking him to come to Las Vegas on
a business deal, and as he did not have
the money Mrs. Beery drove him over,
straight through in one day, I believe.”

ing to finance a motion picture company
and that Mrs. Beery was Interested
enough to help in some of the prellmi
inary financing and to offer the use of
her car.

vorce proceedings, but dropped them.
She and Beery were married at. Boston
