FREDERICK J. WEST, PLAINTIFF, v. HARVEY I. HUTCHINSON, DEFENDANT.
    Submitted January term, 1929
    Decided April 19, 1929.
    Before Justices Black, Campbell and Case.
    For the plaintiff, Robert Peacock.

   Pee Cukiam.

This suit was brought to recover compensation for alienating the affections of the plaintiff’s wife by the defendant. The complaint contains two counts, the first for alienation of affections, the second for assault and ill-treatment of the plaintiff’s wife, Ada West. The trial resulted in a verdict by the jury of no cause of action. The plaintiff obtained a rule to show cause for a new trial. We think the rule to show cause should be discharged, and such'is the order of the court.
