POETIC AFFECTION.
William A. Porter's Wife Was Going to
Continue Affectionate Though Seas
Should Rise and Mountains Should Fall

In the Supreme Judicial Court before
Judge Haskell, yesterday, two OF three
divorce cases were all the matters pre-
sented to occupy the attention of the
court. One of these cases was quite in
teresting.
William A. Porter, of Portland, sought
divorce from Ellenor E. Porter for the
cause of desertion. The parties were
married at Westmoreland, N. B., in Oc-
tober, 1886, and resided together at that
place until June, 1889, when, as the libel
liant claimed, Ellenor became discomfort
ep and expressed determination to
leave him, without giving him any rea-
son for SO doing. He informed her that
he did not wish her to go, but that if she
was determined to do SO he couldn't help
it. and he gave her the necessary funds
for her passage to st. John. She there
upon left his house, but instead of buy
ing her ticket with the money which he
had furnished for that purpose, she sent
an order back from the steamer for the
price of her ticket, which order he duly
honored. In 1900, Ellenor wrote him
from Moncton, whittier she had gone,
most lovely letter, expressing regret for
her conduct in leaving him, a desire to
be clasped in his loving arms once more
and the wish to return home if the means
were forthcoming. The letter closed
thus;
"The seas may rise and mountains fall,
But my love for thee shall live through ALL"
The husband hustled around and sent
his wife the money for her passage and
urged her to return at once, promising
to meet her. She failed to come, how
ever, and evidently fearing that some
thing might have delayed her, he hast
ened to Moncton to bring her home He
saw her at the window of the house
where she was residing, and the recogni-
ton was mutual; but she refused to ad-
nit him or to see him, and after vainly
endeavoring to obtain an interview, he
returned home saddened by This addi-
tlonal experience in the mysterious ways
of woman. He soon afterwards came to
Portland, where he has since resided.
The Court granted divorce for utter
desertion.
W. G.. Chapman for libellant.
William S. Dunphne, libellant, vs.
Grace M. Dunphne. The libellant and
llbellee were married in September, 1890,
and resided at Cape Elizabeth until
March 4th. 1891, when the libellant
claimed that his wife deserted him with
out cause and has never returned. Di-
vorce decreed for utter desertion.
|. L. Elder for libellant.
Hattie A. Mortar, of Standish, libel
liant, VS.. Edwin G. Morton. Divorce de-
creed for utter desertion since Nov. 5,
1886. Custody of minor child decreed to
mother.
A. F. Moulton for libellant
