LADY HEATH’S DEBTS
. REVELATIONS IN COURT. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright). LONDON, Nov! 26. Sir .James Heath’s repudiation of his wife’s, Lady Heath, the,flying woman’s debts, reached another stage in the King’s Bench Division,, when he contested a claim for £239 for gowns supplied- b v West End Court dressmakers’ just before Lady Heath’s,departure for America. The evidence revealed that Sir James Heath settled on his wife trust securities valued at twenty thousand sterling, from which her annual . income amounts to £925. She did not arrive at the church on the first date arranged for their wedding, because the '.settlement was not made. Consequently the ceremony had to.be postponed. When Sir James Heath returned from Africa, he paid bills for her amounting to £IOOO, including the price of an aeroplane. People were clamouring to be paid for dresses that she obtained after Sir Jiis. Heath'had prohibited her pledging his credit. The case was adjourned.
