Syllabus

<p>Divorce — Indignities to person — Gruel and barbarous treatment ■ — Evidence.</p> <p>A libel, filed by a husband for a divorce on the ground of indignities to the person and cruel and barbarous treatment, will be dismissed, where the evidence shows that the facts on which the libellant relied were so negative in character and so unimportant in effect, as to justify the conclusion that the allegations in the libel were not sustained, and that the libellant’s alleged wrongs were not such as to warrant the granting of the divorce.</p>
