ROY SIMPSON, tf —= County Treaa. etaoidnu mfwyp mfwyp mh mh mhh of pajper.s in the case to the bench. ^at means that with good con duct, under the eye of the king’s .proctoiy-Mrs* Simpaon„will-receiy£.an. absolute-divorce in, six months. The Co-respondent, alleged in Ihe testimony to have stayed with Simp son at the Hotel de Paris, at Bray, near Maidenhead, during the latter part of July, was not named in court, although Mrs. Simpson’s attorney said she had been subpoenaed. Simpson, once an officer in King Edward’s Coldstream guards, must pay the costs of the action. From the time a fanfare of silver trumpets opened the court to the minute the massive doors were un locked to let out the news of Eng land’s most intriguing divorce pro ceedings since the time of Henry VIM, iflvas apparent that Mr. Jus tice Hawke did not care'niUch for his role. ’• Not once did he look at Mrs. Simp son, and on several occasions he was curtly stern with her two lawyers. At the start, he inquired suddenly: “Why has this case con\e here?’’ And after a consultation ;«ntb the court registrar, muttered: “Oh, well, I am told ...” Mrs. Simpson, a trim figure in blue, perfectly serene, was on the wftness-stand for just 14 minutes. A "minute after the judge’s decis ion had been announced she arose, carefully escorted by two men, and walked rapidly from the courtroom. 'Hurrying down stairs, she entered her big black car and was—driven swiftly away. She testified quickly and calmly that her husband’s “affections chang ed” towarej her in the autumn nf 1934, that she had found one letter in a woman’s handwriting on a dress ing table and had received another through the mail, and that at length she had had her husband watched, to discover his alleged liYzt at Bray. To the English people, little as they knew about the affair from silent newspapers, today’s proceedings open ed up all important possibilities. Their king has made it plain he has a right to private happiness. Hence the question: “Will his ma, jesty marry Me's. Simpsl^?”—no. twice divorced -— -was all the mo’e pressing.
