Spades, Did you want the newspaper notices for the son, & mother? (Already given wife)
(I had been assuming your interest was solely with Arthur, but perhaps I was wrong?)

Sorry, Mckha, I missed your post.

Yes, please. I'm working on a timeline for him so they will be helpful.

Regards,

Spades

Thanks very much for all of those clippings, Mckha.

They're filled in a few gaps.

Regarding your comment about the Fiji conviction, that is a possibility. I emailed the Fiji Times newspaper, established in 1869, to see if they might have reported on the case or the divorce. No response as yet.

Thanks again,

Spades
