MUST APOLOGISE

CURT NOTE TO WIFE (Special to THE SUN) NAPIER, Today. When Rosamond Tovey, of Napier, ou holiday in Auckland, wrote to her husband that she was undergoing dental treatment, and would not return for some time, he replied in a curt note ordering her- home immediately. The husband, Selim Rex William Tovey, petitioned against his wife for restitution of conjugal rights in the Napier Supreme Court yesterday. The Chief Justice, the Hon. M. Myers, who was on the bench, remarked that the wife’s letter had been written in a very j friendly manner, and there was no | excuse for the rude tone in which j the husband had replied. He thought I an apology should have been made. His Honour dismissed the petition, advising petitioner that, if he wished i to take proceedings at a future date, ' he must first apologise like a man for ; his letter, and then act through his i solicitors.
