A Modern Chronlolo of Cl-n Oawp_BU

[From Our London Corp.f.s. o.;nr,N_.]

London, December 3, j The appetites of evon the most arid de- J vourera of pornographic scandals must be , more than satiated- by the loathsome and , horrible details of tlio Colin Campbell divorce caso which havo overloaded tho , newspapers daring tho past week. Since i the Mordaunt esclandre I can remember ■ nothing like it. "f is not merely the trot that the dramatis ■personae are of the highest rank.which makes the story such an unpre cedented oiie.bntaclearer glimpse of the rot tenness of certain sections of " society " ha« seldom beon afforded Uio middle classes. The Sebright trial revealed a good deal with regard to the "goings on " in high life, but beside Lady Colin Campbell's adventures and experiences even thoso ol poor Uldrly Scolt sound tamo and cominonplaco. It, woulij savo much timo anil trouble it J wero able to quote tho particular., of this trial from an English papor, Hit no colo nial iouinalof any standing would print fcucti unvarni-hod " .hockin' rovelatioiis as havo adorned tho "Standard" and " Evening New? " during tho hearing of the caso. 1 must therefore tell the horrible talo myself, and with circumspection. The trial of tlio cro.s suits of Lord Colin Campbell (filth son of the Duko of Argyle, and brother to tho Marquis of Lome) against his wifo for adultery with tho Duke of Marlborough (notorious us tho Marquis ot Blandforci), Dr. Bird (a fashionable physi cian), Captain Shaw (Uhiof of tl.o Firo Brigade), and Colonelßuth r (husband of tho famous Mies Thompson, tho artist) ; and oi Lady Colin s case aguir.st her hu.band for adultery, with a horri le and Uohnicnl cruelly, opened iv tho Probata and PJYOV-0 divisions beforo Jii-ticy .Rtttt f.nd a special |ury, o-.i li'iiilay iii.,iuing Ufct.

Of the scene in Court on morning tho " Daily News''- has the following : -"It \(ixs forek-oii by tho authorities that extra ordinary demands would bo made upon the i-p-ico of tho Court by pcoplo anxiotw to bo -pectators of what, from the nature of the case, pi'sinued to ba a rno_it remarkablo trial. I" view, therefore, of a crowd in vading the precincs of iho Court, special precautions wero taken to prevent any tiiirl tie crush, ihoso even went tfj thtj extont o| oiecliog v.oodep bonier;-:, within," which no 0 io ,r t ipo_s'eosed of undo'ubtpd credeiuiiils to enter the Court wus admitted- These timely ureajiarp. had '»o de. .red effect, and free access to the Court was a ways obta n able by the representatives cf the Pretta and others having business thero. Tho only complaint made was that of a largo body of the junior Bar, who, on this occasion f,t least, found that tho possession of robes was not a paespp.rfi to a Court where the proceedings, however in(e.rc,.tjatf thoy might bo fiom a .ooia! point of viow, hud no value whatever aa a means of satisfying a craving for legal knowledge. Tho panics to the two suits" were early in tlicir attend ance. Soon lifter 10 o'clock l/niy Coiisi Oampbpll. acpoii.p_,.ii-d Uy »or father and mother (Col. and Mra Blood) and liv friend Lady Miles, whouo name frequently uctiiricd in tho course of the proceedings, took l.hoir-cat- in tho " will!' nl tho Court iumicdiutely below Sir Clrirlua 1.v.5011, Lady Colin', cuun.ei. Lady Colin is a tail and distinguished-looking poi-on, with an intellectual f_.ee. Her exl'oi.iely pale com plexion, which is of a taint ulivj hue, inst oarely tinged with j, fiusubf colour on'the cheek, gavo tlio inipro.. ion ilia, .'-lie even now is not enjoying ihs best possible health, and tide was fully explained by hor c.un..el in his narration of the tull'oiing of mind she had undergone, as well us other trials. 11l tho same row of seats. but farther on, weto Eeated Lard i ulin Campbell and hta solicitor. Tuoy, too, wero curly in their uttondnnce, having come in before tho jury nero sworn. Beforo, hcv. ever, tho pro ceedings actually commenced, lhe Duko of Argyll ent. red ihe Couit, end took a seat next his son, but after a uhile he hurriedly left lhe Court. It happened that Sir Charles Russell had the li^'lit to begin, but it had only beon secured after a legal alter cation, which might be called a:cu_ing, if an) thing coiild bo «o designated in such a painful ea_e. li-ch s'de wanted to bo first, and apparently the juniors thought tho bo_-t way to .tcuio the favourtd position was by being first on their feet. Accordingly, the jury had hardly b.en sworn when .-jr -.carl;.-/ for L n-d Colin Catp.r. _oli, and .vir Charles Mat thew., for Lady Colin, sprang up mid com menced to open tho pleadings for their re spective clients at ono and tho .unio time. This courso naturally brought about a colli i ion between tho leaders on both sides,which ended, after a very brief argument, in Jylr Justice Butt takini' Lady Cal.u - oa.e. Sir Ghar'.eß liuj. ell tiinii attacked the subject in his usuul vigorous style, and ho neither minced words nor spur til comments upon • tho conduct of the respondent for the time being. Indeed, _o severely did he at ono period animadv.r. upon some ulleged action o_ Lord Colin Campbell I that the lattsr turned round and addressed what appeared to be an angry denial or ', oxposlulution. This brought down the . notieo of the Bench, and Mr Justice Butt 5 remarked that if any similar ebullition of 3 fooling took placo he ohgiild lapl it his duty to refjueet thp pey.on so offending to leave . the Court. This admonition had the de.ired ' effect, and Sir Charles was enabled to com- I plete Ids painful and repulsive story without further interruption. ( The Story of tho Case. The story of the caso, as elucidated from the statemenls of a wholo cloud of con -1 dieting witnesses, runs thus : — ' Lady Colin Campbell belongsto awell-ccm i nected Iri.»h fornily named Blood. Her father, ' Colonel Blood, is a retired army officer. The acquaintance began in this way: In ISSO Miss Blood was staying with her parents at a house in £c-tland, and met Lord Cqlin Campbell at a deer drive. The young lady had then been " out " several seasons, and thero can bo little doubt was most anxious to get married. In appearance Lord Colin cannot bo pronounced exactly hand some He is, indeed, a sandy-baired, freckled, and uuwholesomo-lookitig Scotch man. Nevertheless his fascinations, (such as they were) proved too much for Gertrude|Blood's virgin heart. Vcnif, ridit, vicit. Nor did tho wooing tako long a doing. ': Coco" (Lord Colin's pet name) mot hie Gerty one afternoon, and 36 hours later proposed. That he really meant to , marry' tho girl is a matter of opinion. Judging from what transpired subsequently, 1 take him to be ono of tho.o j consummately vain idiots who mako . lovo to every girl thoy meet without " intending anything," Moreover, one would suppose that he couldn't have seriously thought of marriage when he " spooned " Miss Blood. His health for bade any such possibility, If, however, Master " Coco " calculated on backing out of tho engagement alter a time, be rockot ed entirely without Mrs Blood. That wily "old soldier" had no notion of letting the young lordling slip through her fingers. At the iir.-t symptoms of retreat she brought him promptly to book and insisted on a prompt maniage. Nor was thero any getting out of it. At length, according to the statement of Lord Colin's counsel, Campbell told the truth in plain I words. He suffered, be _aid, from a di.caso ' which would prevent his living with his wife at present, and that Mrs Blood, instead of reproaching the young lord with trifling with _ her daughter's affections, and ordering him out of the houso for ever, said her daughter would be very glad to marry him, to live with him as his only, and that sho oho wroto to the' Duke i of Argyll, who was strongly opposed to the marriage, urging a fulfilment of tho engage ment. Mrs Blood, however, denies that Lord Colin told her anything pioro than he had boen compelled to undergo an opera tion. Lord Coliji struggled against his fate a little longer, aud then gave way, and in September, lSßl,at the Chapel Koyal, Savoy, the luckless pair wero married. Ac cording to the statement of counsel, Miss Blood brought her husband £10,000. Lord Colin stated in his ovidenc-e that his brido gave him £1,(100 to furnish tho house with, 1 and bought furniture and utensils at auction.

Lady Coßn'a Story.

Up to this point the uarratioDS of husband and wife agree in essential facts. Kow, however, we must consider their .tatements reparately. Lady Colin's story, condensed, will not take locg to tell, though its nau seous details filled many columns of the daily papers. The marriage of September, 1881, was not consummated till December.

After this they lived as man and wife ordinarily do for a time. Lord Colin, however, was continually falling .11, and whan sick hia condition nronsod in Lady .'.ilin fei.liii"" of <■»" utmost ropngnanco. ui in .iQ.lai'os sho stood il. as hmf? a* sil° Id him tho secret horror hi. advances filled her with. At laet ho.v iver when she herself was suffering DhvsWtiy, the unfortunate wife rebelled. Sho communicated with Lord Coin hrongh an old lady, an intimate mutual friend Lady Miles), offering to act as his muse, keep house for him, cherish Ws interests, nd appear to be hiswifo.but refusmghenco tath to maintain more Intimate relations, and threatened to commit suicide.if he forced his attention., v pon her. Lord Colin was furious. From that moment ( Lady Colin says) all sorts of morbid, jealous U^ugh a filled him. Ho suspected half the mo„g she spoke to, and was -de even to strangers on tho faintest pretext As to the nioinL that he wunld consent to the Pla tonic relationship sho proposed he refused to t-ive it. It wus a gross libel, he declared, to say ho was unfit for married life. Colonel and Mrs Blood backed up their d-lt"*",}" i-..v decision, and at la.t, as Lord Co.ii would not listen to rouson, legal proceedings were token. These ended r„ a judicial separation, the «ry who tried tho case co.is.denrig that Lady Colin's allegation that she had hi - f-_red physically from the ...Hon was proved. Tho procoedingf wero ... enun'rii, Uul tno Hi ory partially leaked out, much, of course, to Lord Culm's aisadvantage. Ho tbon s-t detectives on her track, who f01k,..... too poor woman about overyv?b.oV-. Moreover, ho commenced iusuiriny into tho past, and closely examining Lady Colin a conduct on what ho considered had beon suspicious oc casion... According to his own account,, ho . discovered more than enough 1.0 ~uslity ] him in divorcing her, "Coo?" j_ud -'Ivruzzlc." Tho tirst witness in the caso was Lady- Miles, an elderly lady, and otstwhilo inti mate, friend of Lord Colin's, whom he ad dressed in lottora as " My dearest Lady Miles was at their raai^iage friendly to both Lord mid La.&y Colin, but in tlio SeparattOl, di.i.'p„to the took ItW lordship's .uio. iio'-tyrs' ot hero to "My darling Coco dos.vibo Lady Colin as "a cold uchoraing woman," 'an unnatural wife," and to on. " Mc/.'/io," indeed, ro>r.r.inod firm on " Coco's " tide till aft.r tno separa tion, when she found him endeavouring to tiaducj !_b vifO- ciiaract.r. Then sho declares -ho wont io him and said, "IJ you peivist in those teiriblo charges against Gertrude (Lady C \, i musit tell what I know about you and Amelia Wat son." \ ady Miles gave a very circumstan tial statement of alleged iamiiUnitics she

said i-ho had witnensod botweun his lordship and this girl, who v.:<is a housemaid in liis employ. B.ut Lady Miles did not pud f li'ough cross examination altogether well. She showed hfcv.eii sharp-fongued enough, a.id more than a match for Mr Jb.nlay iv repartee. Noverth_l_..s, that a.tute iyi,vo cato led her into some awkward pit-falls. Lady Miles accounts fov »ot at ouco tell ing Lady Cslin ci what sh- had seen, I pqtuf-tlly' ipnough, Oil the grounds that she i had no do.iro to make mischief between hus bai.u and wife. She could not, however, explain why she tailed to insist on Lord Colin promptly sending away the girl Wcit s-.ii. j-ady Miles came to great £jii-fi too, over the date o! the occurrence, which sho swore took plttCQ on Juno }7ih, ISS2, Asked by Mr Finliy jtßw she fixei] tlio day so ac curately, her ladyship replied : " I read the PsallVt. SVii'y morning, and at the timo 1 _~a_!e a little pencil mark on my prayer book under too initial letter of th,e Ist I Psalm for the 17th day oi tho ro,c.nt_i. It ; was a private memo." Thj prayer book j wus sent fo.r, nn:. examined by -Mr Finlay I jlj.r'J -j-I'-'« counsel), who presently .mikd ! »ardoi_io.-ly, '-.\ly Lord and gentlemen," i ho _ii.id, " ihis hook was the property of the j late Mi-s Violet Mild*, who did not dio till ISS3. Wo aro thereto!c confronted, with Iwo alternatives. Either i.-.dy Miles has for tho l.uri. ...s i.f ll'._ t.i.-.l made the murk sinco .\iis. .Vl'.'.i.- died, or elan' she was in IS*, it! the hahii. of chronich'nfj r.er friendV imseoiiilii-t in lior litii-. daugiiter's proyer- Ipook," A Complete Breakdown. It may bo .-s well to state hero that tho churgo against Lord Colin broke down directly "Mr Finlay handled ;t. Two eminent surgeons oopd-.i'.oly proved that the girl wan chaste. Th_3 would hays beeir conclusive, even if the girl's fellow-servants had not backed up her statement that Lord Colin was always extremely "stand ofli-b," and never took the faiate-t libwty -.th or permitted ono from an inferior. The sensation in Court when tho evidence of the two. sur geons hud been given was indif-vibable. Mr Finiuy tbu:i..croi'- c.t his denuncia tions of Lady Miles and Lady Colin, accusing t_ii.a of deliberately conspiring to ; r..in a poor girl s character for purposes of their Own, Lord Colin's Verstcs-, Lord Colin, in the first place, denied that he suffered from any sort, oi contagious disease i-r tha lirp.o of his marriage, or that ho over .nbsniuently communicated illness to his wife. Mr_. Blond forced on the wedding at a timo when it would have been dangerous, nut to Lady Colin, Out lo hiiiuelf, to cohabit with her. Ho told Mrs Ulooii this, and she said her daughter -ould bo quite content to. ra;so him. Miss Biord also u-]du-i'.o._d hia condition and tho terms of their union. A3 a matter of fact, Lady Colin never paid the smallest attention to hor husband Y. i-hin a fortnight of thoir wedding, when ho was laid up vary ill, she loft him to the car*) _4 hired nurses, and went out into society as usual. Her sole idee,, ho _-.y-, se-emod to ba to take advantage of tho -liberty sho had acquired by be coming Lady Colin Campbell. As to hia condition, medical men (.aid Nir -finlay) would prove that there was pothing either loathsome or (.Tensive i;. it. Nor did Lady Colin compla,',! till her husband's suspicions with regard to Lord Bland ford and otr.er men wero strongly aroused, 'lhen (know ing how much there was he might find out) sho thought, it de.-irabla to provide a weapon to close his mouth with, and put forward this most odious charge.

Evidence As-i-ist the Co-Respondents

Tho opening speech of Lord Colin's counsel (Mr Finlay) occupied the best part of two days. The evidence against the Duke of Marlborough aud Dr. Bird was, Mr Finlay declared, overwhelming, but against Captain Shair and Cold-l-I Butler he should only oiler stranjj suspicion, The casoagaiust Gf-iitaiu Shaw, I had better at once t?.l y__, rests almost entirely on the , ovliier.ee of a single servant who spied on Lady Colin and the head of the Fire Brigade through a keyhole. Tho testimony against Colonel Butler is oi an even more unreliable character, Impending Disclosures. Wednesday was a most sensational day at tho Law Courts. It leaked out early that important disclosures wore expected, and all the parties to the suit put in an ap pearance. The Blood family, who naturally believe firmly in Lady Colin's innocence, mustered in strong force. Mrs Blood, however, was so much moved by the lady's maid's v ßcse Fisher's) evidence that she had soon to leave the Court. The Duke of Marl ■ orougharrived early.and attracted con siderable attention. I may here tell you that believers in Lady Colin lay great stresa on his Grace so readily coming forward to swear to his guiltlesenoe.. 40 the two other divoice suits in which ho was con cerned ho openly admitted ho was wrong, and it is urged that if there Were a tiue bill against him this time ho would not have denied it. Colonel Butler has, on the contrary, positively declined to go into the witness-box. Ho will ti.ithor deny nor admit his guilt, but simply refuses to dis cuss tho mat or with anybody. Tho Lady's Maid's Evidence. Rose Fisher {nee Baet), tho lady's-maid whose extraordinary evidence was the feature of Wednesday's sitting, is a typical Swi.-s, quiet, respectful, observant, and somewhat sly. She gave strong evidence against her {owner mi-tress, but was _-_at.r__.Y_y sbalitn in cross-examination. Rosa Fisher wo;it ti live at Cadogan 1 .aco in November, ISSI Lady Colin was than very intimate with Lord Blonfjfortl (now Duko of M). Bhe wroto to him invariably once a day, and often twice, Rose delivering the letters privately to his valet. Lady Colin used to go out in tho evenings between 9 and midnight by herself. Lady Colin usually came bac^ iv cabs, which sho dis missed at the coiner of the street, so that Lord Colin might not hear tbeu. drawing up. Lord Colin, it may be mentioned, was ill at rhist m.. AtEu. ter,lSS2,LadyColiii(l.avi.,g her husband in town) wont on a visit to Lady Miles at Leigh Court. Lord Blandfo.d was staying there when thoy arrived, and, curiously enough, his bedroom was next io Lady Colin s. One ovoning Rose picked up a man's handkerchief _.ff the floor '! " I know whose that is," quoth Lady '■ C. On another occasion, when Rcsa had remained rather later than usual doing her ladyship's hair, she beard a man ascend the stairs and como to the door. Lady Colin coughed significantly, upon which tho per-I son went into Lord Blandford's room. Thi? was aftor midnight. Subsequently Rose heard Lord B. conversing with' lady C. in her bedroom. Bat I havo said euffi- j cient to indicate the class of evidence. Sir Charles Russell had Mrs Fisher in hand for the best part of six hours cross-examiiv

ing her. Sho " boggier" " a good deal 8n 4 mmlifiod or contradicted several statement* !l ' Lady Campbell subsequently testified tha. r.hn disminsed Itn.e Knot- at the reque-fc _Z '; ' Lord Cnmpboll, bo_.u..i ho hnd complained that sho gossipod about him in tho kitchen ' ' Tho Atlantic despatches in tho American ': ''■ papars supplement the report given by _„, .' -, correspondent oi tha proceedings up to th a time oi tha despatch of the ranil from Lr~ ■"'■"'• g don.
