LETHBRIDGE v. LETHBRIDGE.

John Copland King Lethbridge, a drover, ap- plied for a divorce from Alice Agnes Lethbridge, formerly Fulford, on the ground of her adultery with Walter Black, who was joined as co-respon- dent. Petitioner said he married the respondent in December, 1890, at Charters Towers, Queens- land, according to the Presbyterian rites. She was between 14 and 15 years of age when he mar- ried her. He first met her in September, 1890, at Oak Park, a station kept by bis brother-in-law, and he there became intimate with her. She looked more like 17 than 14 at the time. A fort- night before the marriage he saw her father, and had a conversation with him. He subsequently received a letter from him, and he went to Lynd hurst, where the girl lived. They then went to Charters Towers, where they were married. At the railway station after the ceremony, he told his wife it 'was hard lines they had to part so soon." Before the marriage it was arranged they should part for three years, as they were both too young to live together. The respondent came to Sydney with her sister, and a child was born in March, 1891. He was subsequently informed by her that he was not the father of the child. ln June last he heard something, and went to a house in Oxford-street, where he saw a nurse and the respondent. He entered the respondent's room, and saw a baby, which the respondent said was Walter Black's. She also stated that she had been to Queensland with Black, who was keeping her. Before meet ing Black she said she had been living with her people, and had led a proper life. His Honor reserved judgment.
