Woolloongabba, a packer, petitioned for a dissolution of marriage with May Dodd (formerly Keenan), on the grounds of her misconduct with James Conrad Primmer of Woolloongabba, tram motor man, from whom plaintiff claimed £500 as damages.
The petition showed that the plaintiff and defendant were married at St John's Cathedral Ann street, Brisbane, on October 1, 1913, and lived happily together at Nile street, Woolloongabba, up to June 29 1915 on which date plaintiff departed with the AIF on active ser- vice. The petition further set out that during February, 1917, and divers other occasions at Cleveland road, Coorparoo the defendant committed misconduct with James Conrad Primmer, of Woolloon gabba, tram motor man, and a male child was born on November 18, 1917, at Cleveland road, of which co-defendant was the father.
The plaintiff gave evidence to the effect that he joined the forces early in 1915, and left for the Front on perfectly amicable terms with his wife. On his return he was met by his mother and father, who showed him a birth certificate of a child his wife had given birth to during his absence and of which he was not the father. He then instructed his solicitor to take proceedings for divorce.
Evidence was given by the officer of the court to the effect that when he served the co defendant with the necessary documents in the case he admitted that he was the father of the child.
The jury found the issues proved, and assessed the images at £400
His Honour then granted a decree nisi for a dissolution of the marriage to be moved absolute after the expiration of three months and entered judgment against the co-defendant for £400 and costs. The plaintiff was given custody of his own child, which is now in his
possession. - James Conrad Hurst Primmer died on 16 March 1942 in Petone, New Zealand, at age 54.
