was that the late earl acknowledged
him as his son by his marriage with

few months after her marriage to the
earl. II was claimed the birth was
premature, which was supported by
medical testimony. The defense de-
nicd acknowledgement by the late earl
OF the claimant as his son and asserted
that on account of the time the earl
had known Miss Newman prior to their
