SON-IN-LAW’S ALfeEGATIONS. (Received 8.20 p.m.) London, March 15. —The first such case for 200 years was tried at the Court of Session, Edinburgh. Captain Adamson sued his mother-m-law (Mrs Gillibrand), a wealthy woman of Luttenworth Hall, Leicestershire, for £5OOO damages for causing his wife to desert him. Adamson alleged that his mother-in-law ejected him from her house, where he was living with his wife, and used dominating influence and threats to compel his wife to refuse to live with him. The case was dismissed.—(A. and N.Z.)
