DESERTION OF HUSBAND.
WIFE SECURES DIVORCE. On the grounds of wilful desertion and failure to maintain, Aimee Maud Gray (Mr. Hubble) sought dissolution of her marriage with Thomas Herbert Gray (Mr. Mouat) in the Supreme Court yesterday. The parties were married in Auckland in October, 1910, and there were four children of the marriage. Mrs. Gray said in February, 1923, her husband told her the firm he was working for in Tauranga was giving up business and he was going to Australia. He sent her and the children to Auckland and for six weeks he sent her £3 a week. Since then he had not sent her anything and for two years she had maintained herself and four children. For the last three years she had kept two of the children, the other two being in a home. She had not lived with her husband since Februarv, 1923. Mr. Justice MacGregor granted a decree nisi, to be moved absolute in three months, with the interim custody of the two younger children.
