Bright, who made the application, said his wife was living at Pevensey Bay, t Sussex, where she kept a boardinghouse. He had been a fireman, but since serving imprisonment in January for being in arrears under the order be had been out of work. His life's savings were put in a house, and he, made the house over to his wife, who had sold it. A court officer said that Bright's wife had been most persistent in having warrants carried out and had not given him a chance.
