BOY SCOUTS TO AID IN WIFE WHO MATERNITY CASE SOS FREEDOM

JUMPING OUT of their camp beds when a bell clanged in a Manchester maternity hospital, two Boy Scouts raced in their pyjamas to the operating theatre to help a surgeon try to save the life of a young mother who had just given birth to her baby.

For two hours the boys worked in an emergency team organised by the operating surgeon to restore the woman's breathing after she had collapsed.

Finch at Little near Ayles.

Granting the decree, the judge stud: Mr. Newman, quite straight- forwardly and properly, against his own interest, put before the court a document which he and his wife signed in November, 1938.

"Absolute Freedom"

"One clause states, Neither us will enforce conjugal rights, at! all times there shall be absolute Freedom for both parties, cach going our separate ways, although living under the same roof; in the event of any acts of indiscretion on either side occurring in the future, neither of us will take any action providing there is nu desertion on either side.

There were grounds of cum- plaint by the wife, but, on the other hand, there is no evidence to show that there were any grounds of complaint by the hus- band against the wife, She was going about with the co-respon- dent then, but no evidence has been called that there was any- thing sinister in that friendship.

"It was a foolish document to sign, but I am satisfied that Mr. Newman signed under some pressure from his wife, and he did not intend to encourage his wife to commit adultery, or to assent to such conduct on her part." The judge thought that the ex- planation of the origin of the do- eument was that the wife wRS fond of going about with other men. He did not think that the wife's conduct went any further at that time.

"Mr. Newman," he said, “agreed to sign because he did not want his own indiscretions to be brought to light, When matters between his wife and the co-respondent became serious some time later; he did his best to stop the friend- ship."
