Rupert Ormond Forsyth, 30, of Hodgkin- son-street, Clifton Hill, upholsterer, for whom Mr. Richardson appeared, sued for divorce from Alice Maud Forsyth, 27, on the ground of her misconduct: According to petitioner, they were married on 16th May, 1914, and had two children. Differ ences arose in 1916 between petitioner and respondent through the latter having walked out with a man without witness's consent, and she went home to her mother. After she had been three days there they were reconciled and resumed living together. On 12th July last, however, witness and others found her and a man who gave the name 'of Percy Marshall both intoxicated and occupying a bedroom in a house in Freeman-street, North Fitz roy. Marshall had been cited as co respondent, but there was reason to sup pose he had given a wrong name and ad dress. A decree nisi was granted, petitioner to have custody of the children.
