Woman and man jailed in adultery case arrest
Constables and two Justice officials record a late night capture of a woman and man in a suspected adultery case at a south part Elwell residence. Turner filed a complaint naming Mrs Mercer Elwell or Mercer Glover and David Goff with adultery. The pair were jailed overnight, released later on recognizance, with divorce proceedings and alimony sought by the woman. The case ties to a separate divorce action against Jubany Elwell, with accusations of cruelty and fidelity led by Elwell and calling the woman Mercer. The court set appearances for further action in coming sessions.
