Suit for Nullity Proceedings in Divorce Case
A divorce suit proceeds before Justice Blapson over nullity claims involving Elizabeth Mitchell and Percival Patrick Josey Shanahas. Key questions include if the marriage to Jessie Mary Baxter occurred before September 21, 1894, if a ceremony on September 23, 1898 was valid, and whether Jessie Mary Baxter was alive and the lawful wife of the respondent on that date. Petitioner P HK White notes she married the respondent in a September 58 ceremony at a matrimonial agency in Phillip Street and lived with him at her mother's home until December 8, 1904, later separating and communicating with her mother. The respondent, a professional singer born in Cork, is alleged to have mistreated or rejected the petitioner. The mother-in-law’s role and questions about cohabitation and the wife’s status are referenced, with the judge limiting questioning on some points.
