Tiernan must either stand or fall
upon her testimony.
When the child was begotten,
which was somewhere between Feb
ruary 10 and March 10, 1921, the
relatrix was living with her husband
in the same house. They both slept
upstairs on the same floor. The
doors of their chambers are from
three to four feet apart. He was
normal man, thirty.two years Of
age. and in good health. She was
physically normal, was twenty.seven
years old, and in good health.
The evidence disclosed that they
had been living together in every
respect as man and wife as they
always had before. They went out
in society together and 40 dances
together on an average OF two or
three times a week. There was
not a disclosure in the evidence OF
any serious quarrels or family
difficulties during the lapse OF
sexual relations.
Wife Told Secret.
THE husband knew on or about
the second day of April, 1921, that
his wife was going TO become a
mother, even though their testi.
mony shows that they had had no
relations with each other from jan
uary up and until April 2, 1921,
and as far as the records show. no
doubt ever entered the husbands
mind until January s, 1922, as to
the paternity OF this child. when
his wife told him 1t was not his.
Il may ask here why 1t was that
the husband. a man Of wisdom, and
a professor OF law in a university,
never doubted that he was the
father Of the child until his wife
told him on January 8, 1922, when
the child was born, less than eight
months after the -relatrix testified
she returned to his bed? There is
no testimony outside OF this testi.
mony of the relatrix which could
bastardize this child. The child is
not illegitimate until so decided by
the court"
Mrs. Tiernan, with her head-bent
forward to catch every word OF
Judge DucOmb, was slow at first to
catch. the import of his decision.
Then suddenly she gave a low cry
and fell forward in a faint. She was
carried from. the court room and
removed to her home.
