PROBATE, DIVORCE AND ADMIRALTY DIVISION.

Dundas v Dundas

This was the petition of Eleanor Beatrice Dundas, nee Barber, for a judicial separation from Dr. Mordaunt George Dundas, on the ground of his adultery with a young lady of good family, whose name the President said need not be mentioned in open Court.

Mr Priestley said that the parties were married on 23rd April 1885, at St Peter's Church, Brighton and there were four children of the marriage. The respondent was a medical man practising in Norfolk and the petitioner lived happily with him until in 1895 he made the acquaintance of a young lady who lived in the county with her parents. From that time the respondent's manner towards his wife  entirely changed. He threw up his practise in the country and started one in Norwich  and eventually he came to London and for a time lived in Bayswater. In April 1898, he took the young lady to Scotland and on his return to London, promise his wife that he would break of the liaison. He then took a practice at Ealing, but on June 28, he left home suddenly, having sent his wife out to do some shopping for him. It subsequently transpired that he had gone to Australia with the young lady, although he wrote frequently home to his wife protesting that he was in Sydney alone. The petitioner offered to forgive him if he had really broken off the liaison and in September 1900, the respondent returned to England from Sydney in the steamship Australian of the Aberdeen line. The respondent came home as the ship's doctor and he and the young lady (who was with him) passed as Dr and Mrs Dundas. The lady however left the ship at Gravesend, while the respondent proceeded up the river and was met at the docks by his brother who was a clergyman. After the respondent had been served with the citation and petition, he went down to Bedford and endeavoured to persuade his wife to become reconciled to him, and it became necessary for her to obtain police protection.

The President granted a judicial separation with costs and gave the petitioner custody of the children.
