Mrs. Capel-Smith said that Major Capel-Smith returned from Mesopo- tamin in May 1920, and as he was anxious for a speedy marriage the wedding took place within' about a fortnight. Her father did not attend.

Mrs. Capel-Smith said that she regarded Major Dyer as a great friend.

Mr. Justice Swift: I entirely agree with you. An action like this has never been brought since 1867, when an Act of Parliament was passed setting up the Divorce Court.
