Is it the basis of husband's claim for diverte damage that His wila is ill in fact, if not in law;'d chattel of Kist*".

This was the theme of van interesting Ergument", before Mr. Justice McCardie, in the Divorce Court recently arising out of a case in which damages were sought against a co-respondent by the husband-

Counsel for the petitioner said that up to the Matrimonial Chusës Act, 1857, a woman was regarded' sa'ä'châttel," and w juley" bind to award damaged sodording to bar value to her husband.

His lordship ther and when a wila ceased to be regarded as a chattel: "Coun sal said he had not suggested: than thin iden had gone.

Then you call her a quasi-chattel i (Laughter.)A

Ons the question of recovering costs, counsel said that certain rules had bean. laid down as to whether costs, should" bę allowed or not in individual cases, and it was in measure a matter of discretion.

Mr. Justice McCardie said, if damages wer, given against a co-respondent for misconduct with a woman whom he did. not know to be married them damages were given not for misconduct with know- ledge, but as a sort of punishment for immorality.

His lordship added that although the Courts, had been saying-all along that the loss to the husband, was the rest test of the damages," and "that ycompensation. should be the real prínciple, yet while saging that with assiduity they seemed at the same time to incorporate into every. enseTM the conduct of the co-respondent, not because it affected the value of the wife, but as a thing in itselferien 2
