TREVELYAN'S TROUBLES.

Slippery Sam Scoots. The opening bout waa between parties with the Bertha Clay name of Trevelyan. Enid Jane nominated desertion as the reason why she should be severed from her husband, Samuel, who was nowhere about the Court premises. Questioned by Lawyer Singer, Enid said she and Sammy made a jackpot of their lot, and were married ln Horstralia ln 1900, but, after living there some timo, tripped off to the Old Dart, only to come out to Gawd's Own m 1907. They hit Wellington and for two years Sammy worked as a blacksmith, but horse shoes were apparently n«st Ivtfky with them and Sammy developed a habit of going away for week-end/j to stop with friends. Just before Christmas ,1908, he went away for his usual week-end holiday and was like the ship that never returned, as not once isiiice then had Enid caught even a passing glimpse of Slippery Sam. He was never satisfied with married life, and since he blew off, Enid had had to graft hard to maintain the two olive branches ne left her with. Hie Honor wrote out a brand new decree, the flrst this year and passed It along to Enid, to be moved absolute In three months.
