and'her son, Guy Stillman, was declar
ed legitimate in the findings of Dan

The decision is a complete victory
for Mrs Stillman. Not only was her

Referee Glazon, . however, decided -
Chat the evidence was not sufficient to

that the testimony adduced by Still*

wife had misconducted herself with''
Fred Beauvais, part-Indlan guide, and

In conclusion the referee recom
mended that the plaintiff’s complaint
he dismissed.
Ths report will go to Supreme
Court Justlce.Morschauser for confir

however, that he will uphold the find
