    Divorce. Cause; adultery with R. White. Adultery was sought? to be deduced from proof that the defendant with White and others watched' with a sick neighbor, and when relieved towards mornings the defendant and White lay down together on the bed, in the rooms with the sick man and his wife and the o-ther watchers.. The parties are the same as in the last suit.
