MAN GETS OFF IN SAR- NIA COURT AFTER ASSAULTING WIFE Decision At Sarnia Leaves Ilusband Clear After Counsel and Magi strate Exchange Observations, :Learned philosophy sa the subject of the lost rights of the married man was indulged in court, Sarnia, Mon between Magistrate C. S. Wbodrow and Ilarold D. Fuller, defence council for Frank Martin, Moore Townstip, who was chargen with assaulting his wife. "I maintain • that a man should have some control over his wife and some right to discipline her," Mr. Fuller +contended: "Yes, but the day of locks and chains on wives is gone," the bench replied. • "The courts 'like to' side step the question of how much right a hus- band • has to discipline his wife," counsel continued. "It is peculiar;" his worship re- plied, "but 'a woman is in a better position regarding property. She. has the franehise and can take al- most any position a man can. The man has all the liabilities he ever had, but he has Iost many of his rights.' "Yes and at one time he had the power of life and death over his wife," Mr. Fuller replied. "But now he hasn't even the right his wife has over the children," the beneh commiserated, "He can't even charge her with theft if she steals from him." "I still think a man should have some control over his wife," Mr. Ful- ler concluded. "You will recall the famous St. Thomas case established that a man was entitled to beat his wife with a stick, no thicker round than his thumb," The charge against Martin was dis- missed, the couple being given some sound advice.
