But within months (August 1889) Aristides deserted his pregnant wife and absconded with £80 cash, boarding a French steamer for Marseilles. Wrote to his wife (promising to return at once if she would undertake to 'mend') and to his brother-in-law Dimitri Vouro (asking for £90 to settle business affairs, and confessing the loss of Maria's dowry, apparently some £4,500).
