Head Matter:
Wayne Circuit-. — In Chancery.
MARY CARRIER vs. NATHANIEL CARRIER.
Divorce — Presence of Complainant at the Hearing.
(Nov. 7, 1883.)

Opinion:
By the Court,
Jennison, J.:
This case has been pending for four years.
' Complainant's counsel asks for her a decree of divorce, and asserts that she is in New York, and cannot conveniently get here.
If she doesn't think it worth while to come to Detroit, I am not willing to grant her a divorce.
Complainants should appear and be sworn, and give their testimony in open court, as an evidence of their good faith.
