Syllabus

<p>Divorce—Apprehension of Physical Injury Which Endangers Health May Warrant Divorce.</p> <p>While evidence of merely wounded mental feelings, unaccompanied with bodily injury, is not sufficient to warrant divorce on the ground of extreme cruelty, yet where the evidence showed that a wife was in continuous apprehension of grievous bodily injury, and that this condition was such as to endanger health and render cohabitation unsafe, a divorce may be granted.</p>
