" During the hearing of an. application by Charles Edwin Hills against his wife for restitution of conjugal rights the petitioner, in evidence, said he was living in an apartment but would soon make a home for his wife if she.returned. ' The parties formerly 'lived on a farm at Mercer. Mr. Justice Callansaid that the difficulty was that the petitioner did not have a home to receive his wife. In England the practice was not to allow a petition for restitution to be proceeded with unless the petitioner had a home ready to receive the respondent. His Honour asked counsel, Mr. Lan Simson, to present a memorandum setting forth his argument in favour of the granting of the order asked for. The hearing was meanwhile adjourned.
