Margaret Shea says that. she | Was married to Join M. Shea at Charlotte- jtown, P. E.1L., in 1883. One year later they came to Boston. John is a sailor, and while in port was cruel and abusive, so his | wife and her wiinesses said. She went tu | different plices in her endeavors to avoid him. Ou one occasion he assulted her on ithe street and tore off her dress. John | Shea, the husband, tolda different story. He says that he liveson Prince street at the present time. He said he never struck or abused his wife or raised his hand against her, except in self-defence. He explained i that the tearing of clothes, as sworn to by |his wife, was simply the coming off in his hand of ber bustle. Jvuhn further charged his wife with having lived at No. 2 Concord place with a mau named Stanley whom she (had been passing off on him as ber brother | Joe. She hid passed herself off on the other landlady as Mrs Gould, and had said that Stanley wes Mr. Gould. he said that he called atthe House, and she acknowledged her guilt, but agreed to go and live with him again at some other place if he would mike no disturbance around the Concerd place house. Records were introduced to prove that Shea was con- victed for assault and battery on his wife March 30,1886, and sentenced to fine and imprisonment. An attempt was made by counsel for husband tu set up a condonation of the alleged cruel and abusive treat- ment, because the parties had lived to- gether since the date of iil treatment, as specified in the wife’s libel.
