Western Mail Saturday June 12th 1926. Percy SUTER 35, a Cwmfelinfach collier, appeared before the Blackwood Bench on Friday on a Summons by his wife, Doris Ida, for assault and also for desertion, the wife appeared in the witness-box with a badly discoloured eye. Mr. J.T. PRIESTLEY, for the wife, said the parties met on the previous night and the husband had put into writing a promise to keep from drink, and to do his best for his wife and children, and expressed regret for what he had done. In the circumstances he asked for an adjournment. Several of the magistrates demurred and Mr. D.J. TREASURE (for the husband) said it was these two people who had to decide whether they would live together or not. They had agreed to go together. One of the magistrates told defendant he should be ashamed of standing where he was. Mr. TREASURE, protested that the case was not being heard, and there was a great deal to be said for the husband's side of the case. Eventually the case was adjourned for three months, the Clerk remarking to defendant: "You are fortunate in having a very forgiving wife." A former Rugby half-back for Newport, Capt. Roy Milward George BEITH 34. of St. Briavels, Chepstow, brother of Mr. Douglas BEITH, of Taff-street, Pontypridd, was found lying on the railway near Woolaston on Thursday evening seriously injured, and he died shortly admission to Lydney Hospital. Capt. BEITH who was married, was returning to Lydney from Cardiff by the midnight mail, and shortly before reaching Lydney a fellow passenger, who missed him , reported the matter. A search was made, and in the early hours of the morning Capt. BEITH was found lying as stated. It is assumed that when in the train, a corrider one, he mistook the outer door for an inner one, and openning it stepped out into space. The police state that there is no suggestion of foul play. An inquest is to be held. Attached first to the 5th Battalion Welch Regiment and subsequently to the Motor Machine Gun Corps, Capt. BEITH, saw war service in Gallipoli, Egypt, and Palestine. He was the eldest of five sons of the late Mr. George BEITH, electrical engineer, Court House, Pontypridd, and, with his btother , for some time carried on business in Taff-street, Pontypridd, as an electrical engineer. When Minnie SANSOM 30, a servant girl who had been in the employ of Mr. John L. HALLINAN, of 63, Cathedral-road, for about fifteen years, failed to put in an appearance some time after her usual hour on Friday morning the household naturally became concerned. Mr. HALLINAN, sen., found the girl's bedroom door locked, and, failing to obtain any answer to his knocks and calls, he called his son, Councillor Charles Stuart HALLINAN, who happened to have spent the night in the house. The door was broken down and when the two men entered the room they found it full of gas and the girl lying on her bed apparently dead. They at once removed her to a healthier atmosphere and called in Mr. DUNBAR, who, however, could do nothing but to pronounce life extinct. She had obviously died some previously of gas poisoning. The gas burner in her room, which had been stopped up, had been opened and a rubber tube attached which led in the direction of the bed. The girl, who was of a very reserved disposition, appeared to be in her usual quiet mood before retiring on Thursday night. Her parents reside at 8, Cog Farm, Sully, to where they removed from Cardiff a few weeks ago. John Patrick
