A ROUGH LIFE
THE CHEYLESMORES IN CANADA EVIDENCE IN DIVORCE CASE. (Rec. 5.5 p.m.) London, December 2. In the Cheylesmore divorce case, Lady Cheylesmore giving evidence stated that life in Alberta was very rough and comfortless. She had to dine with the servants. Lord Cheylesmore was annoyed because she accompanied him and said, he could do better if he were a bachelor. He drank heavily and was abusive, and said he did not want her as his parents were antagonistic. Her mother-in-law taunted her continuously until she was reduced to a state of collapse, and in desperation she told her husband she Was going to have a child, after which, matters mended somewhat. When she 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 Cheylesmore’s denial.—A. & N.Z.
