"Then," said Sir Boyd Merri- man, "there was a letter, which was described at one stage of this trial as being a sheet-anchor to the plea of connivance, which was written by the wife in order to get

her husband back after the report of the private inquiry agent.

Mr. Payan had put in an answer denying misconduct but did not go into the witness-box.

Mr. de Cespedes's age was given as 42, and that of Mr. McCandlish AR 03.

SEVEN DAYS' EVIDENCE

A large number of witnesses were called, their evidence occupy- ing the court for seven days.

The case for Mrs. de Cespedes was that Mr. McCandlish adopted her as his daughter in 1915, when she was 18. She lived at his flat at Addison-gardens, London, and afterwards at various addresses in Stratford-place, Mayfair, all of which were connected with a club which he ran

RANG UP .CARAGE

Sir Boyd Merriman spoke of "some of the garbage raked up in support of the husband's cross charges."

Of Mr. McCandlish he said: The material-evidence, said Sir "He was asked whether he was n Boyd Merriman, was that the moral man and he disclaimed any husband and he had had to com- such plain that the wife's suspicions his own confession, that he has Lille.

The husband said he saw his wife only once at the petrol station when the woman named was there. That was before the July, 1930, allegations.

His wife used to ring up Very frequently. In ninety-nine cases out of a hundred it was the wo- man named who answered, and therefore they got to know each other's voices very well.

Between May and July, 1920,

1922.

She and her husband lived at a number of addresses in London, some of the time with Mr. Me- Candish, and Anally at Cornwall- gardens, the home of the husband's family.

That, said Sir Boyd Merriman, was the position according to the husband.
