Penn avenue, with whom the Schrivers
boarded for IL time testified at the
hearing that his habits were worse

Mrs. Schriver testified that her hus-
band drank heavily almost from the
time Of their marriage and when he
was drunk he abused her shamefully
striking her in the face with his hand
and his closed fist, driving her out of
