Robert J. Reilly vs. Anna W. Reilly.
    Penobscot County.
    Decided June 12, 1923.
    In the libel for divorce underlying the present case, the allegations of wrong conduct laid by a husband against his wife were those of adultery and cruel and abusive treatment. A decree was entered on the ground of cruel and abusive treatment. But, the record being barren of supporting proof, the granting of the divorce for the cause assigned must be ascribed to the circumstance of finding facts in the absence of evidence, and on this the law frowns.
    The libellee’s exceptions are sustained.
    
      Clinton C. Stevens, for libellant. Maxwell & Conquest, for libellee.
