• Notes

  Newspaper: DIVORCE CASES SHEATHER v. SHEATHER At the Wagga District Court before Judge Coyle, Norman Edward Sheather of Wagga petitioned for a divorce from his wife Louisa Ann Sheather, on the ground of desertion for three years and upwards. Mr. Brian Clancy (instructed by Messrs. J. C. Sheekey and Co.) appeared for the petitioner. There was no appearance of the respondent. Sheather said that he was married to the respondent at St. John's Church Wagga, in 1919. They lived at Wagga for some time, and then went to Cur rawarna. They returned to Wagga, and he was employed by the Murrum bidgee Milling Co. When he was on night shift his wife would tell him that she was going to the pic tures. He discovered that she was going to dances in the country. He objected, but his wife continued to go to the dances. One day after his wife had been to a dance he spoke to her about it, and she said that she would do as she pleased. That day his wife left the house and did not return. He saw her later and asked her to return to him, but she declined. He wrote to his wife at Cootamundra asking her to return home, but she replied that she would not return . Judge Coyle found the issue proved.
