son of the 4. of Grafton, for a declareof mil y f marriage,on the ground.
that when he married the respondent she
had a husband alive. To this her answer
wail that the man with whom she had gone
tbrelih a ceremony of marriage before she
married Lord Easton, was a married man
with's wif‘alive when that ceremony was
-perfornted, and that, therefore, she was not
married to . him, and . was free to
marry when she became the wife of Lord
Ruston. _
. _ . .
Alt. Russell, in stating the - case for the-
-petitiorter, said ehat his client WW1 thelloti..
James Henry Fitzroy, canimonly called'
the RarI of Ruston. He ilvas the eldest sop
(Atha Duke of Graftan. In 1870 his -father

and the respondeat lived together off and
• on up to 1875,. when the petitioner's
life, which had . throughout been an un-
. happy one, had become intolerable, andhe
resolved to Separate from the respondent..
There was no bine of -the marriage, and

some markings in pencil that Were illegible.
The cartridge Was wrapped in stout brown
paper, coated With, -paraffin, and the inside
was lightly packed with a yellowish -brown
ecimpound, through which projected at the
upper end- two • copper detonating - tubes.
The graineweight of the whole was seven
°lump and *red' hundred - and. urinate, -
eight grains. Having picked out the de-
tonators,- I removed the, entire contents of
the cartridge, vihioli weighed seven ounces
and a . hundred and twenty-eight grains

to that known as ".dualiit," differing only
fro* dynamite in- . containing certin
nitrates, as saltpetrei and baying for *to
basis an absorbent powder, as *sawdu t,
instead of infueorial earth.. It it considered
to be more powerful than dynamite. I
'tested one. of the detonators, and it exploded
with great force, - blowing a large -.• hole
through the stout Wire netting on which it
rested, being itself torn into -such small
tragthents that only one small shred of the
/upper cask* could be found!. .-Takipg the
relattve. explosive strength of gunpowder
and nitro-glycerine as _being 1 to „10, the
cartridge would equal about -11 pounds of
gunpowder, but from the rapidity Of ex-
plosion of nitro-glycerine,- and the fact that
it does notrequire to be confined, -the effect
produced wind be much greeter than that
resulting from thiS aM01111t of gunpowder.
