WIDOW ASKS $10,000 FOR LOVE SWINDLE
Charges She Found Fiance Had Wife
Who Wanted Her to Buy Divorce

She promised to marry him- then discovered he was married. That, with certain other elements of humiliation, is worth $10,000 to Mrs. Mary Krystanowicz. Her suit opened in circuit court yesterday and will be resumed today.

The woman is 35, a widow, mother of five children and lives at 1108 Van Hook Street, The man she accused of obtaining her love under false pretense is Anton Trzaskowski, 45, of Red Hill, Pennsylvania. He boarded with her in Philadelphia and Camden after her husband died, she testified, proposed to her February 1, 1932, received her consent, postponed the ceremony several times, got $1650 from her to buy a car and a $60 suit and hat as the "wedding day" neared.

Then he tried to borrow $2000 from her to buy a farm. This deal hadn't gone through, however, when she visited her admirer's Red Hill farm and asserts she discovered his wife there. But the "last straw," she said, was when the man's wife hit on the idea of obtaining a divorce with cash advanced by Mrs. Krystanowicz.

WOMAN GIVEN $3000 HEART BALM VERDICT
Camden Plaintiff Charges Penna. Farmer Said He Was Widower

A jury of 12 men after five hours and 15 minutes of
deliberation yesterday awarded in Camden Circuit Court heart balm of $3000 to Mrs. Mary Krystanowich, 35, of 1108 Van Hook Street, against Anton Trzaskowski, 45, Red Hill, Pa. farmer.

The trial began on June 15 before Judge Henry H. Eldredge. Mrs. Krystanowich declared Trzaskowskl was already married and the father of several children, but had represented himself to her as a widower. She said he boarded with her in Philadelphia and Camden after her husband died and that he proposed to her on February 1 of last year. After her acceptance, she said he kept postponing the ceremony and obtained a total of $1710 from her.

When she visited his farm in Red Hill, she testified, she found a woman there who said she was Trzaskowski's wife and offered to get a divorce if she would advance the cash. Mrs. Krystanowich is the mother of five children.

John Harwan, of 1311 Sheridan Street, the owner of the car, testified that Cox and Casale took his machine from Mt.

YOUTHS PEDDLING RADIO ARRESTED ON SUSPICION Two youths were arrested late last night on suspicion of stealing a radio when one of them was interrupted by detectives while attempting to sell it. Detectives Benjamin Simon, Clifford Del Rossi and Robert Ashenfelter became suspicious of a car parked at Norris and Sheridan Streets. The occupant, Stephen Stanziak, 19, of 1279 Sheridan Street, said he was waiting for a companion who was in the store of Michael Gucik, northeast corner of Norris and Sheridan Streets. The detectives entered the store and found Joseph Fiume, 16, of 1349 Van Hook Street, attempting to sell a radio to Gucik. The youths said it had been given to them by a man they did not know.	1349 Van Hook Street 1933 Joseph Fiume Camden Courier-Post June 25, 1933
