William Francis Chalmers WIGSTON, late of the 60th Rifles, prayed for a dissolution of his marriage with his wife by reason of her adultery with the co-respondent, Lieutenant John Richmond JEKYLL, of the Royal Marines. Various acts of adultery were spoken to by witnesses. On the part of the respondent and co-respondent it was admitted that they had been guilty of great indiscretion, but that their intimacy was of a criminal character was positively denied. Mrs. WIGSTON stated that she was a daughter of the Hon. and Rev. Mr. KEPPELL, who died while she was a child, that she was a niece of Admiral KEPPELL, and that two of her brothers were in the Church. She and her husband had lived chiefly in lodgings, and he was of so jealous a disposition that on their honeymoon in Brittany he required her to wear three veils, and bought one himself for her at Dinan.
