Photograph article dated April 16, 1958 partially reads, "A 79-year-old Van Nuys man today pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace after his estranged 85-year-old bride of 11 months had him arrested for banging on her bedroom door. Albert Blanton was sentenced to 30 days in city jail by Van Nuys Municipal Judge Julian Beck who suspended sentence with the injunction that Blanton promise "not to strike, molest, threaten, harass or cuss" his estranged wife Dorothy or any other member of his family. Police were called to the Blanton home at 5616 1/2 Stansbury Ave., early today to quell a disturbance."
