Counsel Pictures Wife at
Breakfast with CorporaPs
Photo Before Her
Maids Chief Witnesses
husband Says Jury Upheld
Charge That Ccwle Slipped
Into His Home

Theodore Langsbury Earle, son o.
Ellis Potter Earle, millionaire mining
promoter, obtained a divorce from Mrs
Hester Renwick Earle in the Supreme
Court at White Plains last night. Cor
poral T. Youlden Cowle. OF Company
IA 7th Regiment. was named as CO
respondent. The verdict was returned
before Justice Arthur ;. Tompkins af-
ter the jury had been out two hours.
The trial attracted wide attention
because Of the former social promi-
nence Of Mrs. Earle in the Greenacres
colony. near White Plains. and because
the complaint was based entirely upon
circumstantial evidence.
Most Of the testimony was given by
two maids. formerly in the employ O.
the Earlcs. and by neighbors Of the
two families. The maids testified to a
three-hour tete-a-tcte of Cowle and
Mrs. Earle on the cellar StenS OF IN
Earle home; told how Mrs. Earle had
referred to his photograph as that OF
her beau" and described how on one
occasion she propped the picture be
fore her while She breakfaSted IN bed
Testimony Of Ncighbors
Neighbors testified to long converse
tions over the back yard hedge and IN
the hammock on the Cowle porch. Mr.
Earle told how his wife would meet
Cowle at the train with her automobile
and drive him home, while Earle. often
arriving on the same train, would nave
10 walk. Both Cowlc and Mrs. Earle de-
MED they were in love, but admitted
"neighborly friendship
In summing the case before the Jury
Lee Parsons Davis, counsel Tor MI.
Earle, said:
"If YOU believe our evidence, you had
before~you a young married woman
without affection for her husband, ac-
cording to her own evidence, who was
60 wild about this young man Cowle
that she ate breakfast with his photo
graph in front Of her. Now. just
imagine TIE spectacle Of a young mar
ried woman propped up in bed eating
breakfast with a picture of her lover IN
front Of her while her husband was III

Mr.. Earle and his counsel were in
