# Ron offers a $10,000 reward for clearing his wife,
March 1951

By 1951, L. Ron Hubbard's relations with his wife Sara were at a low ebb. He had taken a mistress, he had kidnapped his wife and daughter, he had attempted to have Sara declared insane and he had denounced her to the FBI as a suspected Communist. Touchingly, he made a final attempt to cure her of the "aberrations" which he believed were driving her into the arms of her "Communist" lover, Miles Hollister, and in the following telegram offered a $10,000 reward to any Dianetics auditor who could "clear" her.
