Linden Melville Warren, 32, of Richardson-Street, Middle Park, chef, for whom Mr. H. Woolf appeared, sued for divorce from Grace Warren, 26, on the ground of desertion by her and her misconduct with Reginald Brown, co-respondent. Petitioner said he married respondent in May,1913, and there was one child living of the union.

Respondent, about December 1915, said she was tired of being home and wanted to take a situation. He said that was not necessary, but she left the premises. About two months later he met her. She then asked to be taken back. He agreed, and they lived together again. But twelve months afterwards she left home once more. She returned a second time.

On 3rd June 1916, witness went to the war, returning in August 1919. He had only seen her twice since the latter date. During his absence at the war respondent gave birth to a female child, of which petitioner was not the father. The co-respondent was the father.

A decree nisi was granted, with costs against the co-respondent, petitioner to have charge of the child of the marriage.

"Age (Melbourne", 16 March 1921        
   
Lin took his little girl, Muriel and placed her in the care of his sister, Ivy Edwards, having divorced Grace in 1921.  He later married Annie Murphy.
