ALTERATIONS OF THE DEED.

"Did you initial say of those alterations or additions ?” asked counsel.

Witness: No, as far as 1.koow there were no alterations at the time I signed the deed.

Sir John: Count de Lubersac initialled them. Did Lord Michel- ham know of them?

Witness: As far as I know, no. HOW THE CASE COLLAPSED. "Supposing." asked Sir John. that Lord Michelbam at this time knew nothing of the propos- ed marriage or the proposed settlement, would you consider

that what passed in the sick

room showed his consent?”

Witness: On that bypothesis 1 should say "No."

Mr. Justice Eve: That answer disposes of the case unless the defence can satisfy me that there was evidence of any previous knowledge and approval of the deed on the part of Michelba.
