(Before the Judge Ordinary.)

Dr. Spinks appeared for the petitioner, who was a land
surveyor'. assistant, formerly of Nottingham, but more re-
cently of Chippeuham. In August, 1854, he married Ann
Maryann ki‘Gatvey, at the Roman catholic cathedral in the
former town, and there had beep 4 children. Latterly the
wife bad falleo into loose habits, and at the beginning of
the present mar she took advantage of her husband's ab-
sences from home on business to indulge in an intrigue with
George Helps, a farmer, and also with Frederick Snell, a
clothworker in the neighbourhood of Chippecham. When
the husband returned from one of his journeys the children
showed him some toys which they said they had bought
with money that " Uncle George" bad given them. This
led to a discovery of the whole affair, sad the petitioner
ultimately turned the respondent out of doors, not, however,
till he had surprised her in bed with Snell in his (peti-'
tioner's) house. Snell said he was very sorry, and. went
away as fast ea be could.
