Donald Speed aged 26 years of Spencer street Melbourne, manager, from Elsie Speed aged 26 years, of Burrowes street, Ascotvale, on the ground of misconduct. William Smeardon, of Pilgrim street, Footscray, timber worker, was named as co-respondent. Petitioner and respondent were married at Richmond on February 8, 1930; there is one child. Costs were awarded against co-respondent.
NB William Smeardon doesn't seem to be in Foorscray electoral rolls around this time. The nearest match is William John Smerdon, who consistently lives in Buckingham st., and is an engineer.
