November 20, 1914
In the divorce court, Melbourne, on Friday last, Charles William MATHERS,
dentist, of Horsham, on the ground of desertion, sued for divorce from
Harriett Fanny Mary Jane MATHERS, formally SMITH, now going under the name
of Mrs.WATSON. The two, who are quite young people, married in 1906. There
were no children. After living privately for some time, they stayed at the
Royal Hotel. Then Mrs. MATHERS began frequently to visit Melbourne. She
stayed longer than was arranged on one occasion in 1911, and when her
husband came to town to ascertain the cause she said she was tired of house
keeping, and sick of Horsham. He had been unable to induce her to return to
him since.---- A decree nisi was granted.

Have a happy Christmas and a safe New Year
