IS In the London Court of Divorce, March 2, the
cue oi Cvendih vs. Cavendish and Gordon,
cane up n a petition v the husbund tor disso
lution ot niarriaj; on the ground ol the wife's
adultery. Ha also claimed damages against the
co-respondent. The respondent appeared, and
traversed the charge; the co-respoadeiit did not
appear.
L)r. Bwabpr and Mr. Hodgson for the peti
tioners Dr. Doana, Q. C, aud Dr. Tristram ior
the respondent.
The petitioner, Mr. Francis William Henry
Cavendish, is a frentleman of good family, and
on the '24th of April, 1850, he married the re
spondent. Lady Eleanor Sophia Diana Fitz
plbbon, who was the daughter of the Earl and
Countess of Clare.
They cohabited at Hyde Park street, Ilydo
Park Square, and aiher places lu Loudon, and
had three children, the j ounces t of whom is
about three years ot age. In lwl the petitioner
met with a severe accident, and be in conse
quence went abroad with his laruilv tor some
time. He returned in the course of 1G2, and
took up his residence at Kilvcrlands, near St.
Leonard's. The co-respondent, Lord Cecil James
Cordon, married the nall'-sister of Lady Caven
dish, and is the luthar ot nine children, the
eldest being about twenty-five years of age.
Standing in the relationship of brother-in-law to
the petitioner, the greatest intimacy existed
between the two families. In June,' 13(54, he
went, acenmpaniod by his daughter, on a visit
to Kilvcrlands, and while there he tell ill.
He was nursed with every possiblo kindness
and attention, and it was also stated that his
circumstances were such that in other matters
likewise he was under obligations to the peti
tioner, bhortly alter this visit he cme to re
side with his family at a placa called Gray's
Lodge, qatte close to Silverlands. The intimacy
between the two families became, if possible,
greater; but the close relationship and the dis
parity of years between the respondent and co
respondent, he being; sixty end she not more
than twenty-seven or twenty-eight years ot age,
Jrccladed all Idea of suspicion. On the 30th
ansary, 18(56, Lord Cecil Gordon dined as usual
at the petitioner's house, and a few days after
wards, on the 2d February, Lady Eleanor Caven
dish left her heuse tor London, on the pretaese
of visiting her mother, Lady Clare, who was
then ill.
fehe was accompanied to the station bv her
husband, and was expected to return home the
next day. On the following day, accordingly,
the carrisze was sent twice to the station to
meet her; but the suspicions of the petitioner
were not aroused until a day or two satae
ouentlv. when a letter he had written to her to
her mother's address was returned. It was then
lound that Lord Cecil Gordon had also left his
homo. Inquiries were set on loot, and he and
Lady Eleanor were traced to Paris and Nice,
where they w ere found living as man and wife,
and rjassiuir uuder the name of Graham. In
statins the case to the lury, the learned counsel
(Mr. Hodgson) observed that the motive which
must have influenced the co-respondent in the
mat tor was as disgraceful as bis conduct.
In January. 1864. Lord Clare died, and bv hie
will all of his property, alter the death of Lady
Clare, revolted to his dauchter. Ladv Eleanor
Cavendish. The co-respondent was a man of
pleasure, aud in endeavoring to aecount for his
conduct, the learned counsel suggested that he
was probably anxious to live upou the bountiful
fortune into the possession of which he well
knew Lady Eleanor would soon come. What
ever lux motive might be, he had deserted his
wife and children, and had broken up the home
of the man by whom he had been overwhelmed
with kindness.
RThe Earl of Cawdor, Lieutenant-General J. It
Crawford, brothers-in-law of the petitioner, and
Air. Frederick John Howard, his half-brotner
were called to prove the terms on which he ana
Lady Eleanor Cavendish had lived. They stated
that be wss a most indulgent husband, and that
he ana bis wile una uvea on tne most auection-
ate terms,
Similar testimony was arlvon by other wit
n esses who had been servants in the house, and
it was also proved that the respondent and co
respondent had lived as man ana wile at Mce.
where they passed under the, name of Mr. and
Mrs. Graham.
The witnesses were not cross-examined, nor
were any observations addressed to the jury by
the respondent's counsel. Hsr mother, Lady
Clare, havintr died aboet three months since.
she is now in the enfoyment of the property left
her by ner tatner. lis amount was not stated,
but it was understood that it is considerable.
Bis Lordship, in charging the jury, said that
very little was to do said on trie case. Toe tacts
were not numerous, and the result conld hardly
be doubted. The repondeat bad been wicked
enough, or bad enough, to leave her husband's
house, who bad treated her with kindness and
affection, and had gone to live with a man who
was her brother-in-law.- From the circum
stances under whieh she left her home, there
could be no doubt that they were carrying on
an adulterous intercourse, and the only ques
tion, . therefore, which remained, was as to the
damages. In assessing those they should look
to all the circumstances of the case, and say
what they thought was a reasonable compensa
tion, so far as money could be a compensation,
for the loss the petitioner had suffered.
In considering that matter, a very natural
question arose whether the husband nad been
at all to blame. They had unimpeachable evi
dence that the petitioner and respondent had
lived on the best of terms, lie was described as
a kind and indalgont husband, and there was
not a suggestion of any shortcoming on his part.
Hut if he behaved well, what were they to think
ef the conduct oi Lord Cecil Gordon? It was
well said that the gravity of an offense might be
measured by the obligations which were broken,
or by the consequences which followed from its
commission. If they applied either tost to the
eailt of the co-respondent, it would not appear
the less light or grievous. They could hardly and
any case in which the obligations which were
violated, were so numeroas and so strong, or
in wlit on the consequences were so painful.
Here was a man at the advanced period in lite
of sixty years, himself a married man with nine
children, visiting and partaking of the hospi
tality of the petitioner, and receiving kind
nesses from him, and then taking advantage of
the intimacy which belonged to near family ties,
Inducing the wife of his triond and relative to
leave her home with him. Whether the motive
was mercenary or not did not signify, the result
was the same. Bo far as he (Sir J. P. Wilde)
could see there was net the slightest excuse or
Iialliation tor such conduct. There was no nog
ect on the part of the husband there was no
want of kinaness on his part, and there was not
one circumstance which, so far as the respon
dent and co-resnondent were concerned, conld
lessen the guilt ot the gross violation and double
lniracuon oi tiicir marriage vow.
Til rpnlv tn . 4iitm lnh.A..lkil V n t Vi o tr
had evidence before them as to the means of the
correspondent,
Bis Lordship said, that if a nan did not pay
in pocket he should pay in nerson. The oro-
perty of the co-rtspondent was not the measure
oi aamaves. xao measure or damages was what
the petitioner had suffered.
The jury, after deliberating for a short time,
found that the adultery charged had besn com
mitted, and assessed the dunmpes against the
co-respondent at 10,000. They added that it
was one of the grossest cases tnat ever came
before them.
, His Lordship granted a decree nisi, with
coats agalLst the co-respondent.
A Mother and Hon Claim to be Member
of the Boystl I'aiully The Lady Clatnia
tbe Title of Prince and (be Usikedoui
of Cumberland for Her Hon.
Irvm the London Timet, March 6.
Some mention has been made in the Court of
Probate upon one or two recent occasions of the
case of "Kyveii against the Attorney-General."
It may not be generally knows that, althoagh
the cause has act as vet assumed a very iuanort-
ant shape, it involves points ol historical late-
refct; and when it shall have come fully before
the Court It will, we have uo doubt, attract
large shure ot public attention. The suit Is
THE DAILY. EVENING TELEGRAPn. PniLADELPIIIA, , TUESDAY,
undertaken by a mother una1 her son, who,
tnouph thoy arc now living in comparative
obscurity, aspire to the high honor ot being
reccirnicd as members of tie royal family. In
endeavoring to accomplish their end it wi'l be
necessary lor them to inquire somewhat cioly
iuto the history ot Kn.g Geerge 111, aad
many curious Incidents may of necessity bo
brought out bv the evidence ana documents
exhibited in reference to tui-t purl of the cose;
for Mr. Ryves, the petitioner, asserts that
he baa descended from the issue of a pri
vate marriaee contracted by the fenr'h
brother ot Geerre 111, wno was known as l'rlnce
Fjenry Frederick, Duke ot Cumberland. Ine
ledy to whom the Vrinco Is said to have been
married was Olive Wilmot, th! daughter of J)r.
James Wilmot, rector of 15arton-en-the-Heaih,
in Warwickshire, llts wile, the mother ot this
Olive Wilmot, was a Polish prince. How much
Inienstuig matter it will be necessary todist-lo.se,
for the purposes of this sail, respecting the pri
vate relations eximinc between the Prince und
Olive Wilmot prior tu tbe alleged marriage, it Is
impossible to say at present; but as the whole
suit ling's upon inis I'Oint, everrtiiing incidental
to the Intimacy ol Trinee Frederick and Dr. Wil
mot aad hislamily will no deubt oe thoroughly
canvassed.
Put whether this marrlaao can be proved or
not, it is quite certain that it was acknowledged
at the time, tor the gossips of the period seem
to have made it one of their stock subjects, aad
the daughter born of the marriage was also
I ublxlj recognized. It seems, however, that In
tbe course ot time the Prince got into a scrape
with Mrs. Horton, a sister (o the Colonel Lut-
trcll who was afterwards returned a member of
Parliament by Court influence in place cf
Dctnaeneue Wilkes." The Prince eventually
married Mrs. Horton, and, as the bigamy, was
ocmmilted in the face of theacknowledcment of
the Issue ot the former marriage, it became ne
cessity that something should be done to hush
ud the Fcanaai. xne Histories referring to to
period show that tbe King about this time would
not Teceue nis nrotner at conrt, ana it is con
jectured, with soiko show ot reason, that the
Frohibition arose cut of the disagreement be
een them consequent upon this bigamous
marriage. The Prince, accordingly, n willing
or unable to deny himself the pleasure of Mr.
Barton's society, and equally loth to be denied
the court, neglected his first wile, who alter
watds died tn France.
lie also consented to a proposal that his
daughter should be brought up in ignorance of
her parentage until the scandal hud died a
natural death, aad certain distinguished person
ages had died too. When this had been settled
to the satisfaction of all concerned, save those
who, if the stoiy be true, had been most
grieous1y wronged, the mairiage of the Prince
with Mrs. Horton was allowed to pass without
interference, and it is this Mrs. Horton who has
continued to be acknowledged an the only aud
childless wife of Prince Frederics:, Duke of Cum
berland. It is easily conceived that an arrange
ment such as that which, it is said, was come to
between tbe Prince and the King was not con
cluded without some writing, ajid it is us.-ertcd
that several documents were signed touching
the legitimacy of the daughter ot the Prince ana
his wife, nee Olive Wiliuot. These documents,
it is lurther asserted, were witnessed by more
than one Minister of State of the period, and
carefully preserved at the King's request. They
were ultimately committed to tbe care of eertain
eminent persons, upon whom a solemn obliga
tion ol secrecy was laid until the happening of
certain events which have long sinee occurred.
Tbe names of ail these persons will, we have no
doubt, be mnde known in the course of the pro
ceedings before Sir J. P. Wilde.
The case has already been before the public,
not only in eeurt- of justice, but also in Parlia
ment and by pctitina to the royal family. The first
fietition to the crown was made in 1819, and the
ast in 18;")8. In 1861 Mrs. Ayves, then sixty-four
years of age. obtained a decree against the
AttorneGeneral establishing the marriage of
her father to the lady to whom we have alieady
referred as tbe daughter ot the Duke's first mar
riage, and the chief object ol the present peti
tion is, as we have already stated, to establish
Mrs. Hvvcb' descent through this lady from
Prince Henry Frederick, Duke of Cumberland,
with the ultimate object of proving', her son's
title to the honor and dlgnitr of th- Dukedom
f Cumberland, and ber own right te the title
of Princess of Cumberland.
The case was introduced to the notice of Par
liament by Sir" Gerard Noel nearly half a cen
tury ago. He moved for a Select Committee to
inquire into the truth of statements made in her
petition, which he bad presented three months
before. It seems he was very earnest in .her
cause, thoroughly believed in the genuineness
of her case, and persisted in announcing that
he "had it in command from this royal per
soaace" to do so aud so "for roval personam
he would continue to believe her" until she was
proved and -declared to be an impostor by a
Select Committee ot the House of Commons.
The petition of that day seemed to aim not only
at tee declaration ot Mrs. itvves' legitimacy and
roval descent, but also to tne acquisition ot a
grant trora toe Uivu iiiBt. sir uerara oet de
clares that he "had always believed that every
member ot tne rcyal family was upon tne Oivtl
List, but here was a member oi the royal family
quite unproviaea tor."
Tne present petition was uiea in tne (jourt or
Divorce, under the Legitimacy Declaration act,
in August last, and the case has neen set down
for hearing by a special jury; but a series of
delays have caused it to be put off for another
three months. An application tor an adiourn
meut was made en Tuesday, the 37th of Feb
raary, by Mr. Bourke, on behalf of the Attorney
General, and opposed by Dr. J. ff. Smith aud.
Mr. jj. ju. 'J. nomas on tne part ot tne petitioner.
The Attorney-Genbral desired delay because he
had. just come into possession of a number of
aocamenu wmcn coma not De arrangea in time
for the trial. These papers, tbe petitioner
aBierts. are simrjlv comes of certificates fur
nished by her or her mother to the sovereign. In
company with petitions concerning the claims
we have referred to. A sigaiflcant observation
was made by Sir J. P. Wilde, wn Tuesday, when
ne grantee tne application tor postponement.
He remarked that it was an important case an
