After the start there were errors made, in judgement, but never was there a time when my wife did not love me. Nor was there ever an instant when I did not love her and our dear children to the very utmost of my heart. I have suffered greatly, how much no human will ever know; but it has been suffering with the knowledge that if the matter was never righted here it would be in world to come. “I am happy today and so is my wife. The wrong to both has been righted.”
