The prosecution stated that accused had declared himself a bachelor, and had gone through the ceremony of marriage with Ruth Muter, he having previously gone through the same ceremony with a woman named Minnie Schmitt, at Adelaide. According to a statement made by accused, the Adelaide marriage was not legal, because he then had a wife living in England.
