SUED FOR BREACH OF PROMISE

JURY GAVE DAMAGES

An unusual point of law. In a breach of promise case was decid- ed by Mr. Justice Hawke in the King's Bench Division, when he held that £200 damages, assessed by the Jury againat Sir Anthony St. John Mildmay, Bart., need not be paid.

Eddy for the plaintiff, and added:-- do not think that the mere fact that the aggrieved party to the marri age has taken proceedings and earried them so far as to prove the necessary facts and obtain a deeres nisi is sufficient to allow the wrongdoer to make promises
