ALL FOR LOVE.
Doctor’s Name Erased From Register. LONDON, December 1. The name of Dr Charles Searle, who was ordered in June, 1932, to pay £SOO damages and costs to John Place, a Cambridge grocer’s assistant, for having enticed away his wife, has been erased from th? medical register by the General Medical Council. Dr Searle was not present, but wrote that he was now living with Mrs Place in Kenya. The action was originally heard before the late Mr Justice M’Cardie, who held that a wife was not a slave, and was at liberty to leave her husband. On appeal, a new trial was granted, and Dr Searle ordered to pay the co_-ts of both actions. It was stated by coxmsel that Dr Searle had sold a valuable practice £4850, and had left wife, children and frr.nds to go to Central Africa.
