CAI3B2B.—iIINII 7.
(Bean the Judge Ordtury.)
PIACOCI O. rzaeoca.—J9DlClAL BIPABATION.

In this case, which wee tried before a comtemajnry, Mss.
Sarah Peacock, the wife of Mr. Alexander Da Peacock, •
idlk manufacturer in Spitalfields, prayed a maceration from
her husband on the ground of adultery committed with her
servant, Matilda Carpenter. The defendant pleaded not
tillirscorieance, and condonation. and be also recnotteated
of adultery upon the petitioner.
Dr. liwaby, Mr. Hawkins, and Mr. Phear appeared for the
wife; Dr. Phillimore, Q.C., and Mr. H. T. Cole for the
kawhead.

The parties were married in October, 1863, and they had
had two children. Matilda Carpenter was herself examined
in rapport of the petitioner's case. She stated that she had
lived with the Peacocks from September, 18,5,5, to the close
of the following year; end that in the month of June, 1868,
while her mistress eras at Tunbridge Wells, she had slept
with her master. The adultery wee repeated on several
subsequent comical"; end in February, 1867, she bore a
hoards child to the respondent. On aose-examinatlon,
she admitted that she bed left her last place in consequence
of having contracted an infamous disorder ; but she said that
it was communicated to hire bye oabinetmaker num

of 4100.11, who had in effect committed a raps ateilme. Had
told her mistress that the child am not her ...*'a. That
was when beer mistress first found it out. Mr. Bertholomew,
a friend of the family, had been requested by the respondent
to nee his good offices to bring about • moonciliation. He
proved that a letter put in was in the handwriting of the a
spondent. In that letter Mr. Peacock arena his war,
and entreated his wife to return to him; for "her rotors
would make him the happiest of men, instead al the mast
miserable of mankind." &boat the date sleet letter the
bad had an interview in the peesenota of alma
patties bad
mid that she bad only conesoted to rasa
with him after the confinement of the servant, became he
had gone down upon his Imes@ end protested upon his
amour an a men and a gentleman that he was innocent.
Mrs. Peacock did not say that eke forgave him; she matt
have said she would have forgiven him if he bad ocellessed
Ida fault. The parties never lived together after that.
Dr. Phfilhoore, on behalf of the husband, contended that
the evidence of Matilda Carpenter was too week to satisfy
Hosiery that he had been guilty of the adultery ; and that
the law which had been put in only showed that, in his
anxiety for the return of his wife. for whom he had a were
affection, he was willing to admit in general terms that he
was la the wrong. Even if they were convinced that in the
absents of his wife he had given way to temptation, there
was evidence to show that Mrs Peacock, although • gnisant
of all the facts that she know now had returned to cohabi-
tation, ad had lived with him for several months. The
learned civilian called

Jame;llolloway.,The foreman of the rsspondent, who said
that early is February, 1867, Mr. Cuthbert, the father of the
petitioner, called on hie master. Witness based a scuffling
and went up to the parlour. Found Mr. Cuthbert holding
Mr. Petcock by the cellar. Mr. Cuthbert said, "Your
seater is the father of this child , I have hosed it. and I
know it." Mrs. Peacock, who wee ales plaint, said, " Yes,
and I won't live with bim." Mr. Ciattibeet said his daughter
should go borne with him. Mr. Peacock said, " fthe shall
not with toy consent." Mr. Cuthbert replied, " I don't care
for that." Mn. Peacock want away with her father, bat
she returned on the following Wards , and lived with her
husband for about six months aft. They appeared to
live happily during that sus months.
Elizabeth Pam, the servant of the respondent, gave
oceroborative evidence ; and this wilimee's mother deposed to
an admission of the respondent to the diset that she knew of
tbe 66dr with Carpenter.
Boss evidence was rolled to show that Mrs. Pam& had

. Quanta add the anxiety the reeposdeat had shown
to effect a reoaseiliation with his wife wee badly consistent
with the imputation of levity which he now cum =whir.
The learned judge then proceeded to ems the e
to the alleged guilt of the husband, end the condonation Oaf
his canoe by the wife.
