CHEYLESMORE DIVORCE ACTION
THE WIFE’S EVIDENCE. London, December 2. In the Cheylesmore divorce action, Ladv Cheylesmore gave evidence that life' in Alberta was very rough and comfortless. She had to dine with the servants. Lord Cheylesmore was annoyed because she had accompanied him, and said that he could do better if he was a bachelor. He drank heavily and was abusive, and said that he did not want her.
His parents were distinctly antagonistic. Her mother-in-law taunted her continuously until she was reduced to a state of collapse. In desperation she told her husband that she was going to have a child, and after this matters mended somewhat. When it was revealed that no child was coming Lord Cheylesmore declared that she could stay with him no longer.
She claimed that the marriage was one of affection, despite Lord Chevesmore’s denial.
