As the case will now be retried, we shall make

no comment on the evidence, except to point out that no sort of blame can be laid upon Lord Ampthill or Lady Ampthill for their action. The evidence showed how unfounded and unjust was the sugges- tion that Lady Ampthill had been harsh and unfriendly in her treatment of her daughter-in-law. The very reverse appears to have been the case. In view of the admitted circumstances it is difficult to see how the petitioner's parents could have acted otherwise than they did.
