Stockport Advertiser and Guardian: 23rd July 1869

Divorce: In the Divorce Court on Thursday, the Hon. R. J. Pinsent, a Queen’s counsel, and member of the Legislative Council of Newfoundland, sued for a divorce. He married the respondent, who was the daughter of a Portuguese merchant, in April 1856, and lived with her in Newfoundland until November 1867, when she came to London to place one of her children at school. The co-respondent, Charles Mesham, was formerly an officer in the army, and secretary and aide-de-camp to the governor of the colony. He was married and had a family, and he had been on friendly terms with the petitioner. There was no dispute as to the adultery, but the petition contained a claim for damages, and the only question was to the amount. Verdict for the petitioner – damages £3,000: Decree nisi with costs against the co-respondent.
