tho proof OF cruelty and drunkenness. the
Court said that the complainants and her
mothers evidence WAS not worth OF credit,
that Whitaker had testified in court. and did
not act or appear drunkard. In conclusion
the Court snid:

doubtful the Court would gladly make that
doubt in favor Of the com plainant, hut there is
no doubt to 10 solved. for reason that the evi.
dence shows that tho complainant came hero
only to obtain divorce. and that the evidence
does not show the defendant to be drunken
