Petition for divorce for Henry B. Walthall, "Little Colonel" of the movies, from his wife was on file here today. The charge is desertion. Walthall is understood to be in Los Angeles. Papers were filed by his attorney.

-"'Little Colonel' of Movies Asks Divorce From Wife," Eugene Register-Guard, September 11, 1918

Less than two minutes after he entered the courtroom yesterday Henry B. Walthall, moving picture actor, was granted a divorce from Mrs. Isabelle Harrington Walthall in the circuit court. Walthall charged his wife with desertion, stating she left him March 18, 1916. Mrs. Walthall is said to be living in New Jersey.

-"Divorce for Henry Walthall," Warsaw Daily Times, November 16, 1918

Henry Walthall married Miss Mary Charleston five days after he had been granted a divorce from Mrs. Isabelle Harrington in 1918. They were married at Crown Point. Judge H.H. Loring, Valparaiso, Ind., pronounced Walthall's second marriage illegal.

-"Three Movie Weddings Probed; Search For Bride Is Recalled.," St. Petersburg Times, May 26, 1922

He married his leading woman, Mary Charleston, in Indiana, ten days after he was divorced from Irene Fenton. He says:

"There are absolutely no grounds for investigation into my second marriage. I married my first wife, Isabelle Fenton, fifteen years ago. We couldn't get along, and separated. I obtained a divorce at Chicago five years ago. I was given a final decree with the provision that I would not marry again in that state. The Indiana judiciary decided that my second marriage is entirely legal."

-"The Love Troubles of a Perfect Lover," The Norwalk Hour, July 10, 1922

※ Here's Walthall lied that he had a divorce from his wife Isabelle Fenton 5 years ago but actually it was 4 years ago. It seems like he was trying to deceive his daughter's age.

Marguerite Clark, once as noted in the film world as Mary Pickford, and Mary Charleston, star of the old Vitagraph company, now are happily married. The former is the wife of Harry Williams of New Orleans, and the latter married Henry B. Walthall, the actor.

"I have found more happiness in my home than I ever could have found in the vain glory of seeking personal fame," says Mrs. Walthall.

-"Many Stars, Once Famous, Now Are In Poverty And Obscurity," The Southeast Missourian, September 15, 1925

Henry Walthall's daughter Mary Patricia was born on her father's 40 year old birthday. (March 16, 1918) But the baby's mother wasn't Walthall's wife. Her mother was Mary Charleson.

When Henry Walthall divorced his wife Isabelle Fenton in Chicago, he received an order from the judge prohibiting him from remarrying within the state for one year. So he went to Indiana and remarried Mary Charleson in November 20, 1918. It was five to ten days after divorcing his wife, Isabelle Fenton.

In other words, Henry Walthall already had an illegitimate child. That was a reason why Walthall had to divorce Isabelle Fenton and why he had to remarry Mary Charleson so quickly after the divorce.

"WILL ENGAGE A PAVING EXPERT," Kingston Daily Standard. March 18, 1913. Page 2. --- Board of Works Will Get Advice. --- In View of Exceptional Work in Connection With Rails This Step Will be Taken. --- The City Council at its regular meeting last night decided to engage the services of an expert engineer, to prepare the plans and give expert advice in regard to the paving of King and Princess streets. In view of the fact that the department of the City Engineer is so limited, and that there are very few men in Canada who are expert in the matter of paving in connection with street railway tracks, it was considered adviseable by the Board of Works to secure an acknowledged expert on this subject before the Council took any definite step in the matter.

This matter was brought to the attention of the members of Council in a report which was made by the Board of Works subsequent to the re- gular report, and which was not in printed form. This was a matter of comment by Mayor Rigney, who pointed out that the procedure was any- thing like businesslike. He intimated that the Board had since Thursday last to prepare its report and that there was no excuse for it bringing the matter to the attention of Council in this form. He stated that it was not fair to Council to expect the members to grasp the meaning of a report from the reading of the secretary. He advised the chairman to obey the rules of Council in this regard.

Ald. Fair explained that the matter had been brought up at a meeting subsequent to the regular meeting and that there had been no time to embody it in the regular report. In reply to questions he stated that it was estimated that the cost of such expert advice as was required. would be in the neighborhood of $200 and expenses, the expenses not to exceed about $65. The chairman pointed out that the Board had. thought this action advisable in view of the unusual expenditure and in consideration of the fact that the engineering staff was very limited.

This clause was passed without further discussion.

The City Council also adopted the recommendation of the Board of Works in regard to the paving program for the year. The following streets are to be paved with a permanent pavement on a concrete base Johnson street from Ontario to Wellington street; King street from Clarence to William street; and Wellington street, from Clarence to William street.

The Council last year passed on the laying of an asphaltic macadam roadway on Wellington street to the Park and this will be proceeded with this year in conjunction with the continuation of the work on Barrie street, from Union street to Princess street.

Sennett in Two Memories (1909)

In 1916's Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages, Griffith linked Prohibition to feminism by inserting the intertitle “When women cease to attract men they often turn to reform as a second chance,” depicting feminists as a villain who take babies away from “unfit” mothers. He also shows the young women meeting men in back-alley (bootlegging) saloons shortly after Prohibition passed.

In 1913's The Reformers; or, The Lost Art of Minding One's Business, while their parents are out doing social reform work, the son gets drunk and the daughter falls for a friend who brings them alcohol. I guess that Griffith wanted to show that people resist social reform in one way or another. As in Intolerance, The Reformers shows the bootlegging trade flourishing soon after the passage of Prohibition.

In 1912's The Lesser Evil, Blanche Sweet helps the leader of the bootleggers who kidnapped her escape when he is surrounded by police, and 1909's Two Memories shows a group of young men and women marching, all with champagne in their hands.

그리피스는 1916년작 Intolerance에서 '성적 매력을 잃은 나이든 여성들은 주변을 뜯어고치려고 하게 마련이다'라는 인터타이틀을 삽입해 금주법과 여성주의를 연관시키면서 여성주의자들을 '적합하지 않은' 어머니에게서 그들의 아기를 빼앗아 가는 파렴치한으로 묘사한다. 그리피스는 또한 젊은 여자들이 금주법이 통과되자마자 뒷골목(밀주거래)술집에서 남자들을 만나는 모습을 보여준다.

1913년작 The Reformers는 부모님이 사회개혁 활동하러 나간 사이에 아들 술에 취하고 딸은 술을 가져온 친구에게 반해 버리는 내용으로, 그리피스는 사람���은 어떤 식으로든 사회개혁에 저항한다는 걸 보여주고 싶어했던 것 같다. Intolerance에서처럼 The Reformers에서도 금주법이 통과되자마자 밀주 거래가 성행한다.

12년작 The Lesser Evil은 블랜치스위트가 자길 납치한 밀주업자들의 두목이 경찰에게 포위되었을 때 그를 도망치게 도와준다는 내용이고, 1909년작 Two Memories역시 청춘남녀들이 한 명씩 손에 샴페인을 들고 행진하는 모습을 보여준다.
