1ENJNAItO w. T1ODGI1
The object of this suit is to pro-
cure a divorce vinculo matrimonii
for the Complainant Dolores l. HUI
Der from the Respondent, Leonard
w. Huber
The Bill states that the parties
were married on the 18th day of
March, 1948 by the Rev. Ira Sankey
Ernst, in the District of Columbia
and moved to Maryland and resided
in the City of Hagerstown until the
30th day of May, 1913, when the Re-
spondent, Leonard w. Huber, with
out any just cause or reason aban-
doned and deserted your Complain
ant and has declared his intention to
live with her no longer, and that such
abandonment has continued uninter-
ruptedly for at least eighteen
months and is deliberate and final,
and the separation of the parties be-
yond any reasonable expectation of
reconciliation; and that the said
Leonard w. Huber is a nonresident
of the State of Maryland; that the
conduct of your complainant towards
her said husband has always been
kind, affectionate and above re-
proach; and that the Complainant
has resided in said Hagerstown for
more than years prior to the filing
of her Bill of Complaint. The Bill
then prays for a divorce a vinculo
matrimonii for the Complainant from
the Respondent and for other and
further relief.

stance of this suit, and warning him
to be and appear in this Court, either
in person or by Solicitor, on or before
the goth day of May, 1850, and ans
wer the premises, and show cause, if
any he has, why decree ought not
