TO TN MOTO* or TNT TITUS&

you will do me the favour to insert this
letter I shall feel grateful. Although in atteadance at
the Old Bailey with reference to promodinp in this cue,
I was not even " allowed " to be present in court while the
case was tried, and consequently had no opportunity of
hearing the evidence in any way, on either side. I well
know th►t &molding to law no mats can give evidence
against his wife in any shape or form, except for a divorce ;
but at the same time allow me to state that the first years
of our married life were spent in tolerable happiness and
comfort, nor did I behave unkind ; but at last she formed
acquaintances of whom I knew nothing, nor bad I any
chance of finding them out, until I found to my bitter
experience I had been made a victim to deception and
fraud. As to Mr. Pack, I could n find him out until
just before the commencement of this case, when I had an
opportunity of seeing Dim, neither did I say on any occa-
sion she was " quite welcome" to the party she married
for the second time. The fact of the second marriage was
found out almost accidentally.—l am, he.
