"ABSOLUTELY FALSE."

"I was charged in the article with collusive conduct in regard to a divorce case in which, in the year 1903, I was the petitioner, and with insincerity and bypocrisy. In particular, it was said of me that while in the House of Commons I urged that desertion should not be; made a ground for divorce. I tried to obtain my own divorce on that very ground. This statement is absolutely false.

"The ground of my divorce was misconduct on the part of my husband, and misconduct aldhe. There was only one petition; there was none claiming divorce on the ground of desertion.

"For my part I preferred a separa- tion, and for a time my husband and I lived apart, I having the custody of the child. This separation without divorce might have provided a per- manent method of dealing with my unhappy marriage, and this is what 1 desired.

NO ALTERNATIVE. "Subsequently I was left with no alternative but to take proceedings for a divorce on the ground of mis- conduct, and this I did."

་་

There was, from first to last, no. collusion of any sort. Lady Astor declared.

As I have been forced to drag my private affairs into publicity, I wish to leave nothing untold, whether it scema at first sight to tell for me or against me. In the separation be- tween my former husband and myself, his lawyer, in the interests of his own client, insisted on preserving a position which enabled a divorce to be obtained, even on grounds of desertion, when the time lim ted by Virginian law for divorce on that ground had run out,

"If any persors, are malicious Henough to say that this implies that I was in favour of desertion being treated as a ground for divorce, or that I attempted to avail rayself! of it, they are at liberty to say so, even though it is not true.

To you I may say that I know you will believe, and what the coun. sel of my former husband will testify to be true that all through these wretched family difficulties I did not ! want a divorce at all, and did not believe in or intend to take proceed- ings for divorce on the grouäd of i desertion:

Misconduct was the ground. for. divorce in which I believed, and when proceedings became inevitable these were the principles on which I acted.

"I bave told you fully of the sor rows of my early life. You now have the facts. I do not propose dealing with the matter again."

"I am proud to be your member. I am deeply interested in the work which it involves. But I will not pretend that it requires no sacrifices, and of these sacrifices the one I find hardest to bear is being so much away from my children and my home."

A resolution was unanimously passed condemning the attacks end assuring her of the unbounded esteem of her constituents for her and ber public work

The resolution was passed, amid cheers, and Lord Astor said he had never felt so grateful to a Plymouth audience as he did that evening, m
