ware' toe the *half in en fiction for criminal conversation
triad at the swim for the county of Surrey.

parallel listwam the witness upon whose es ;deuce I was com-

&t abs a divorce from his wife have become a matter Petbliei

that I transgressed the fair limits of the advocate in rohrriog
to them

"The sentiment which I intended to couvey to the Joey
ens, t►at • tem of the highest position and the most un-
edlisd might, from hasp of friendship and hoes
the most game motives, led his mamma* to smother he
procuring the miasma eesestial to obtain • sepansime from
• wide who had dishonoured him, and who, he believed, woe
no
longer worthy to bear his name.
" &nee my return to town I have read the testimcmy given
