Stimson testified at the hearing that he was uncle by marriage to Beers the de- fendant. He went to the home of Jo- ter being MT. Harvey's wife, and found the Curran woman there. Mrs. Harvey said the woman was Beers wife, and he told her she was not. He became so indignant that he left the Harvey home, and did not stay for Thanksgiving as he had planned.
 Joseph Harvey likewise testified as to the visit of Beers at his home. He said that he supposed of course that Beers had brought his wife with him. He stayed there several weeks.
 Mrs. Beers did not give much testi- mony, her statements merely relat- ing to her marriage with the defend ant, and to the fact that he had de- serted her in April 1910. She said she had three children HowardF, aged eight years. Emma G., aged six years, and J. William, aged five years. Testi- mony was not asked for on any of the other grounds except adultery and in temperance. Judge Case thereupon granted the decree together with the custody of the children.
