Albert's Business
WHEN Matilda Marshall asked her husband, Albert Ernest— who, she told Judge Herdman at Auckland, had developed lazy habits — how soon he was going to work, he replied: "That's my buslnessl" Next day she saw him putting some things m a bag, which led her to suspect that he was making a move. She asked: "Where are you going?" Albert seems to have had a stock phrase and again he replied: "That's my business!" Whatever his business may have been, he has kept his wife m the dark ever since and has left her to carry on. Perhaps he was too tired even to write. So far as Matilda is concerned, he can now stay away, for she has had fl decree nisi conferred upon her and Albert has gone out of her life for good.
