Opinion

BY THE COURT.

This might possibly be a case for a divorce from bed and board; but the legislature, for reasons unknown to us, have taken from the court the power of granting such divorce. The wife has driven off her husband, and now seeks a divorce, because of his wilful absence. She was doubtless right in refusing to live with, or support a husband always drunk, but that does not make a case of wilful absence on his part.

Bill dismissed.
