ELDRED v. ELDRED.
    Divorce — N onsupport.
    The testimony in a suit for divorce, on the ground of nonsupport, is considered on appeal and held, insufficient to sustain the decree of the trial court granting the divorce.
    Appeal from Hillsdale; Chester, J.
    Submitted April 14, 1911.
    (Docket No. 5.)
    Decided June 2, 1911.
    Bill by Mary E. Eldred against L. Selah Eldred for a divorce on the ground of nonsupport. From a decree for complainant defendant appeals.
    Reversed.
    
      Charles M. Weaver and Charles A. Shepard, for complainant.
    
      Arthur L. Guernsey and Merton Fitzpatrick, for defendant.
   Hooker, J.

The defendant has appealed from a decree of divorce granted to his wife on a hearing upon proofs taken in open court. We are constrained to hold that the testimony fails to make out a case warranting the decree, which must therefore be reversed, and the bill dismissed. It is so ordered.

Ostrander, C. J., and Bird, Blair, and Stone, JJ., concurred.
