Anna Grossmann, Appellee, v. Frank Grossmann, Appellant.
    Gen. No. 17,969.
    (Not to be reported in full.)
    Appeal from the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon. William Fenimoee Cooper, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the October term, 1911.
    Reversed and remanded.
    Opinion filed October 13, 1913.
    Statement of the Case.
    Bill in chancery by Anna Grossmann against Frank Grossmann for separate maintenance. From a decree directing the defendant to pay the complainant five dollars per week for her support, defendant appeals.
    
      Abstract of the Decision.
    1. Husband and wine, § 2’67
      
      —what is necessary to support a decree on appeal. To sustain a decree for separate maintenance, on appeal, the party in whose favor such decree is rendered must in some way preserve the evidence or the decree must find the specific facts proved on the hearing.
    2. Appeal and ebrob, § 1269*—what evidence will be presumed to have been heard. There is no presumption on appeal that evidence not appearing in the record was heard in support of a decree.
    3. Appeal and ebrob, § 855*—when certificate of evidence is .necessary. A decree for separate maintenance, finding that “the allegations of the bill of complaint are true as therein stated,” states only a conclusion and is not sufficient to supply the place of a certificate of evidence.
    Matthew J. Huss and Robert R. Mix, for appellant.
    No appearance for appellee.
