Syllabus

<p>Divorce — Desertion—Evidence.</p> <p>A suit by a husband for divorce on the ground of desertion cannot prevail where the proof shows residence of the parties within the time required to give the court jurisdiction, that they then went to a foreign country, where they resided for a time, that the husband returned without his wife, but thereafter visited her several times, and finally returned without her, and there is no proof of the grounds for the final separation or any competent evidence that the wife had refused without reasonable cause to come with, or follow him to this country, or of any other fact which would be valid ground for the presumption of an intention on her part to desert willfully and maliciously persisted in for two years.</p>
