SHERIFFS' COURT.—MAicn 12.
(Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C., and • Jury.)

OF AN OLD LADY OP 76 PROM OCR HUSBAND, AOID 36.
Mr. A. F. fiimon, instructed by Mr. Fogga, of Green-
wich, stated the case for the plaintiff, who to a collbediatme
keeper, at Greenwich, and sought to recover the imni of
12a. ed. from the defendant, a mike rso at Fish-
errin Pembrokeshire, for necessaries supplied to de-
ddint's wife. The learned counsel said the Seto of Gael
case were certainly remarkable. Kn. ppwwyynnnnee was War-
tunately both deaf and dumb, but notwlthstre• three
defects, she bad entered into hymental bonds doer severel
times, in the first instance with a Mr. Foliw, by whom she
had four children ; secondly with a Mr. Davis, by whom
ehs bad no leant, end it was alleged that ohs had
afterwards married Davis' leather, but that merles,
had bean set aside, and she enbeoguently married
the wriest defendant, in 1852. The leaned conned wee
prepared to prove by evidence that the unfortunate lady, who
wee powered of a competency settled aspen her for life under
her rd will, had been subjected to severe ill Image on
the put of the defendant, and anuFtly she wee OHS-
peticd to leave her home to Jme, 1 and went to reside
with the plaintiff until the &Saabs- fo lowing. The learned
comma relied upon the DMUS, that the defendant had
need his wife to such en extent as to justify her in leaving
her home.
