It is alleged by Southwell that his Wfl'e and her numerous admirers arranged a code of signals, whereby they were kept advised of his movements and it was therefore possible for them to know when he was at home. When he went by his house ‘at 4321 Telegraph avenue and saw !a signal to the effect ‘that he was away from home, they would enter and Mrs. Southwell would entertain them. In this manner the Woman also kept the admirers from meeting and quarreling there. Just what signals were used Southwell does not say. Sometimes he returned home before these men departed and they were forced to leave the house surreptitiously. But the foregolng were not the only acts which caused Southwell ‘“intense mental anguish”’ and caused him to sue for divorce on the ground of exXtreme cruelty. It-is alleged that Mrs. South- well often' remained away from home without his consent and refused to pre- pare his meals. She preferred the so- clety of other men to his, and afternoon teas to her own fireside.
