ACTION FOR SLANDER.
VERDICT FOR DEFENDANTS. Press Association.—Telegraph.—Copyright. Received March 28. 9.15 a.m. LONDON, March 27. Baron Do Forest sued Captain Henry Marcus Milner, Lady Gerard, and Dowager Lady Gerard for slander in having alleged that his brutal treatment of his wife made it impossible for her to live with him. Counsel for plaintiff stated that Lady Dc Forest had confessed to adultery with a young army officer named Ashcombc, and the baron forgave her. The case failed owing to insufficient evidence of publication of slander, and a verdict was given for defendants with costs.
