Notes:
Claimant and soldier having been married when both were aware that soldier had a wife living from whom he had not been divorced, their cohabitation was illicit, and, in the absence of proof of a change to a matrimonial relation after soldier's wife procured a divorce, it will be presumed that the original illicit relation has continued, and she will be held not to be legal widow.
