A DIVORCE POINT.
"No Intention to Desert."
In the Divorce Court yesterday, the
Chief Justice (Sir Robert McMillan)
heard an undefended petition by Agnes
Caldwell Johnson, in which she sought a
dissolution of her marriage with Robert
Godschall Johnson on the ground of de-
sertion. Mr. A. J. Chick appeared for pe-
titioner. At the end of the petitioner's
evidence the question of the intention of a
respondent to desert a petitioner was dis-
cussed.
Petitioner said she was married to re-
spondent at Bunbury in April, 1922 and
they were happy for a year, after which
respondent began to drink and lost his
position at Bunbury. He was later rein-
stated and was then employed at Mundi-
jong. At Christmas time, 1924, she went
to her home at Bunbury and respondent
followed. He stayed only one day and then
went to Perth and left the same day for
Sydney. He did not tell her he was going.
Later she received tw0 letters in which
he confessed he cleared out through
money troubles and asked for her moral
support in his endeavour to "make good"
in the East. She answered the first letter
and told him to come back when he "made
good," but did not reply to the second
letter. She had not heard from his since
February, 1925.
His Honour: Where is there evidence of
intention to desert?
Mr. Chick: It is shown by his going
away without telling his wife.
His Honour: But he went away to avoid
monetary troubles; not to desert his wife.
He was a bad husband, I agree, but there
is no evidence of his intention to end the
marriage. On the contrary, he writes an
appealing letter to his wife to bear with
him in his troubles.
The case was adjourned to Chambers for
further argument.
