They had been married about seven years He had ever known his wife to drink to excess. She drank whisky, but quite a little of this upset her because she did not cat much. They had lived a very quiet life.
Mr. Sainsbury added that they sometimes had words over bills, but never over drinks. He had never assaulted his wife. They occupied separate bedrooms, communicating by means of folding doors.
