In Divorce
Deehan V Deehan

Joseph Francis Deehan applied Joseph Francis Deehan, of Parkes, applied to Mr. Justice Boyce in the Divorce Court on Monday, to grant him an order for the restitution of conjugal rights against his wife, Essie Esma Deehan (nee Bassett) on the grounds of desertion. The parties were married at Wellington in January, 1929 according to the rites of the Church of Rome. There is no issue of the union. Deehan, who was born at Parkes, said that at the, time of his marriage he was an employee of the Postal Department, and because of his inadequate earnings it was agreed that after the ceremony his wife should return to her people to live. Subsequently they lived together as man and wife, but she left him in September, 1930, and since then they had not been together. His wife, he said, had lived in several country towns since the separation, and in August last, when she was in Wellington, he wrote her, asking' her to return to him. In that letter he told her there was no reason, even after their long separation, why they should not come together again and live happily. There have been faults on both sides, the letter proceeded, but the big thing is: are we going to, make a fresh start? We are but only young and if we are willing to forget all that has happened in the past and make a new start, we still have our future ahead, of us.

 His wife, he said, wrote in reply;
Sorry I cannot look at things as the same was as you after now, as any affection I had for you is dead, and it would, be quite impossible for us to live, together again as man, and wife. We have been apart too long to make a fresh start. I have other interests in life now, and the only way is for you to just try to forget me, as, I have quite made up my mind on the point that I will never return to you. I am sorry I am to blame for the wrecking, of our lives, but, as you say, we are still young, and there is no reason why we should not find happiness in the future.

Deehan told his Honour that the, reference in his letter to there being faults on both sides, meant in his case, that he had not been in a position to provide a home immediately after the marriage.

 John Patrick Deehan, mechanic, of Crown Street, city and a brother of the petitioner, told the Court. That he saw his brother's wife a month ago, and she then told him that she had no intention of returning to her husband.

 His Honour made, the usual order, directing the respondent to return to her husband within 21 days. Mr. Wm J, Maclean, city agent for Mr. Williams; agent for Messrs Quirk arid Davidson, of Wellington, appeared for the petitioner.

The respondent did not, defend the action.

MARY CLARE 'LAL' WARD:

My mother “Lal” earned her living as a professional singer touring all of the capital cities and New Zealand during the first world war with a variety show called “The Dandies” and another called “The Troubadours” and she was engaged briefly by the Carl Rosa opera company. She often sang operatic arias and was familiar with all the major operas. I have an old programme in which she is shown performing an aria from “Samson and Delilah” by Saint Saens and it also featured an address by the Rt. Hon W. M. Hughes (Prime minister of Australia. She had her early training from the nuns at OLMC Goulburn where she was a boarder and later from William Asprey a well known musician who at the time was organist at St. Mary’s. The Ward girls often went out as governesses to out back properties and Aunty Tot taught Darcy, Roly and Nell Ryan for a time. Their mother Hannah was my Grandmother’s cousin. It was on one of these stints as governess that she (Lal) met my father. She had the offer of a contract to go to Java as a singer but there was a scare about white slave traffic and she was persuaded not to take it.  Dos was to go to a property near Cowra owned by Clements but she didn’t want to go so Mum went in her place and met my father who was shearing there. They were married on 17th Oct, 1922 and this put an end to her singing career. Her voice deteriorated in due course (like most singers) and in her latter life she was reduced to “The last rose of Summer” and “Absent” and of course “Janie” and “The seal” at Darbys parties. As for Beryl she also sang very well but never opera to my knowledge.  As for knowing Melba, Nev, himself - presumably the source of this information had a lively flair for hyperbole and his exuberant pride in his sister’s achievement seems to have overflowed on this occasion. It probably derives from an incident which occurred when my mother sang at a concert which proudly billed  Melba’s protégé, Essie Ackland as the star feature - she is said to have acquitted herself so well that many said (perhaps a little biased) that hers was the superior performance. She never met or knew the great diva but she did hear her sing from the gods after queuing for ages. . Before her marriage she formed a company composed of her relatives which she called “The Fun makers”  Aida and Pat Jordan lived on a property near the river called” Belmore” and I have a clear but fragmentary memory of staying there with Bryce  while Mum was having Ros. We drove back to Hardgotte in (Uncle) Pat’s sulky. I often heard Aida allude to Aunty Ellen (this must have been Pat’s aunt) and may have been your Ellen O’Leary. Aida had a wonderful memory and would have been a fount of information had I been interested but alas for thoughtless youth, the opportunity was lost.  It was Aida who used to take her Grandmother off saying what sounded like “Kashlurken house county Limerick. Ireland.” It was of course” Castle Erkin” Pat Jordan was brother to Mary Jordan who married Thomas Markham. As I was on Moratai Island at the time of the breakout I was scarcely in a position to tell the Ward kids about it and I don’t think any tall stories came from my siblings either. However, it is not an entirely unreasonable presumption that some japs may have holed up for a time in the Darbys hills; there is certainly no proof that they didn’t.  I received a letter from Mum at Moratai with most of it cut out. This puzzled me greatly until I heard of the break out which she had apparently described. Dad was away at Wyangala cutting timber and she had pathetically tried to nail up our front and back doors it must have created a huge sensation.

Wellington Police Court.

FOOTBALL ARGUMENT LEADS TO A FIGHT.
At the Wellington police court on Friday last, the police proceeded against two young men, named William Henry Dray and John Patrick Deehan, for riotous conduct. Dray still bore the evidence of the conflict on his face, for one eye was blackened and there was a scar on the face indicated the 'scrap' was rather willing. Both pleaded guilty to the charge Sergt. Mills explained to the Magistrate, Mr. Bromhead, that the defendants on the night of June 2nd, were settling a football argument and decided to fight it out to a finish, so they went into Fong Lee's lane, and had a fight, but before it ended the police came along, and the men were arrested. The Magistrate imposed a fine of 10/- each, with 8/- costs. Both paid their fines.

Mrs. Val Conlon.

The death of Mrs. Val Conlon, at Cowra, was a great shock to the community, by whom she was held in deep affection. She was a victim of complications following an attack of influenza. Much sympathy is felt for her husband, and four little children — Frank (6 years). Pat (5), Bede (4), and John, only 7 weeks old. The late Mrs.
Conlon, who was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. V. P. Flanagan, well known residents of Canowindra, was born there 33 years ago.

She afterwards resided with her parents, her father, being postmaster at Liverpool, Balmain, and many country places, including Ganmain. In the latter town she was married to Mr. Val. Conlon, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Conlon, of Randwick. Mrs. Conlon was of a sterling character, and of a loving, obliging and self-sacrificing disposition. She was a valuable help to the local church, where, as a member of the choir, her vocal ability was appreciated. She was visited by the local Sisters of St. Joseph (one of whom is a near relative), and attended by the Rev. Fathers N. Cooney, P.P., and J. McGrath, from whom she received all the consolations of holy religion. Her remains were taken to St. Edward's Church, Canowindra, where the prayers for the dead were recited by Rev. Dr. O. Emelhainz. Numerous floral tributes and many hundreds of letters and telegrams of sympathy were received by the bereaved family. A long concourse of mourners (relatives from far and wide) was present, and the funeral cortege was the largest seen in the district for years. Rev. Dr. Emelhainz again recited the prayers at the graveside. Besides her husband and children, the late Mrs. Conlon is survived by her sister Vera, and her grandmothers, Mrs. Marshall, of Canowindra, and Mrs. Byrnes, of Goolagong. — R.I.P.

Wedding

TOOHEY— MOLLOY One of the prettiest weddings seen in Orange for some time took place at St. Joseph's Catholic Church on August 8, when Marie Josephine, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Myrtle Molloy, of Mandurama, was married with Nuptial Mass to James Mannix, eldest son of Mr. J. Toohey, of Orange, Father Sheahan, an old friend of both families was the celebrant. The church, which had been beautifully decorated by the Sisters of Mercy, formed a charming setting for the wedding. The bride chose a trained gown of Magnolia satin; tulle veil, edged with Alencon lace, was held in place by a halo of orange blossom and miniature lilies. She wore a necklet of silver from which hung an embossed silver cross, an heirloom given to the family by her paternal grandmother. The bouquet was of hyacinths and tuberoses. The Child of Mary cloak was worn during the marriage ceremony. The bridesmaids, Misses Frances and Patricia Molloy, sisters of the bride, were frocked alike in shell; pink marquisette and wore picture hats of blue silk net. Their bouquets were of hyacinth and Cecil Brunner roses. The train bearer, little Josephine Molloy, a sister, looked delightful in Alice Blue net frock with matching poke bonnet. She carried a basket of roses, violets and trailing fern, she was assisted by her cousin Peter Molloy. The bridegroom was attended by Mr. James Martin, medical student of St. Vincent's Hospital, Sydney, and Mr. John Payten, of Canowindra. During the ceremony Miss Young presided at the organ. 'Ave Maria' and 'Benedictus' were beautifully rendered by Miss Foley, with violin Obligato by Miss Young. The reception was held at the Memorial Hall, Orange, where about 50 guests were received by Mrs. M. Molloy, wearing a black ensemble with silver fox cape, and Mrs. J. Toohey gowned in nigger brown with Peschaniky cape. The three-tiered wedding cake was made by Mrs. M. Molloy Father Sheahan presided at the breakfast, the usual toasts being honored. Numerous congratulatory telegrams were read, including greetings from the bridegroom's brothers, who are on service. The honeymoon was spent at Katoomba and Sydney, the bride travelling in a smart mushroom pink suit with brown accessories; Their future home will be at Orange.
