The Judge Comedies I'm Important
Point 10 the Plaintiff.
LONDON, Nov. 29.--In the Campbell divorce case
to-day Nil Finlay, for the defense, continued the
presentation of Lord Colin Campbell's case. II
Lady Campbell had believed, the lawyer argued.
that her husband had communicated a maiady to
her she would have mentioned the fact to him
but this she had never done. The Judge, inter-
to the cruelty alleged In the petition as one OF the
grounds for divorce, and as said cruelty had been
proven In the former trial, In which the plaintiff
ground alone, he must now refuse to allow the
allegation to be contested, and should direct
s4Sen sne Jury to atn dind that the defendant had
allegations in her petition were false and had
ienora SGen made to & nslmidate and had since been
falsfty OF which could be known only to Lady
Campbell herself. The defense, however had
Lord Collins proceedings I'm Paris in regard to that
charge even. Allowance must be made, counsel
contended, for Lord Collins action in asking the
the prostitutes prison, because at that time the
delendant believed that his wife was living there
IN aduitery with the Duke OF Marlborough. Four
persons, MI. F1n1ay went on were accused Of
having been criminally intimate with Lady
:. Here Here Mt; Russell, plaintiff counsel interrupted,
.. Not necessarily flve," retortedM Mr.. Finlay.
"On, Mr. F1nlay!" exclaimed Mr.. Russell.
CALLED THE DUKE "DEAR GEORGE
The defendants counsel then continued: Lady
as 'Dear George" He had taken her home at 2
O'Clock In the morning, gone up stairs with her
and remained with her 20 minutes. on one occa-
that took tea up to Lady campbell found the
drawing room door locked, and little later found
II unlocked, and saw that Lady Campbells hair
ture out OF place. On these occasions, counsel
eontended, the plaintin had doubtlessly misbe
hayed. Lady Campbells maid would be called
ana would prove that on more than one occasion
Wnlle plaintiff was living alone her couch at
Lelsh court was occupied by more than one per-
SON ,,d servant and two independent witnesses
fnfdelity in the Purfeet hotel.
LADY COLLINS DEVOTED MEDICAL FRIEND.
Doctor Bird and Lady Campbell at one time were
constantly together and whenever he called plain
TIL used to give orders that she was not to be dis
turbed during his presence. Once a cabman saw
Doct0f Bird and Lady Campbell while returning
from charitable concert In the east end, caresS-
Ing each other in the cab On this occasion they
were driven to Doctor Birds house and both went
IN. The cabman remained outside and Lady
CampDell stayed SO long that he drove away. 1t
would also be shown that when Doctor Bird visited
Lady Campbell professionally he would remain for
hOurS at her bedside In a darkened room.
CHIEF SHAW BROUGHT IN.
Referring to Chief Shaw, of the London fire brig
ade, Mr.. Ftnlay said Lady Campbell met the chief
IN an unfurnished drawing room in Cadogan place
III 1oSo1s anu WIFI 1lu1 an EOuf, ana uuf
ing 1852 was with him alone in a dining room
under conditions which would convince the fury
that plaintiff and Chief Shaw were wrong doing
the evidence connecting Lady Colin Campbell
with Gen Butler largely referred to the length
OF time he remained when he called upon the
plaintiff. Two shameless women had cOncOcted
the story OF Lord Collins criminal intimacy with
his Wifes maid, Mary Watson. The defense would
produce two surgeons who would swear that
Mary watson was ,iTyO int0ctd, and that there
fore 1t was impossible that the defendant could
have been guilty OF adultery with her.
DBEOUNCING LADY MILES.
At this point, Mr.. Finlay denounced with great
excitement and passion what he called Esthe in
famous fraud and perjury and the shameless con-
duct OF Lady Miles and Lady Colin Campbell -
lSensat1On.] He accused Lady Miles Of proStitut-
ing her prayer book by inserting therein the dates
the purpose OF accommodating data upon which to
found the present suit.
